Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 6 cups mixed frozen berries, thawed, divided
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 1.5 cups packed brown sugar
• 1.5 cups unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Prepare berry filling: Mix 3 cups berries, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently and crushing berries with the back of a spoon, until mixture is about half liquid, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Step 3

Prepare crust: Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Add butter and cut in with two knives or a pastry blender until mixture is crumbly. Pack 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Set remaining crust mixture aside.

Step 4

Prepare cream cheese filling: Blend cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Spread cream cheese mixture over the crust, then sprinkle remaining 3 cups uncooked berries over top. Top with the cooked berry-sugar mixture and crumble the remaining crust mixture over top.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until the top crust is lightly browned, about 45 minutes.
