  5. Step 5: Cut in the Butter - Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients, and using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Step 6: Assemble the Crisp - Sprinkle the oat streusel topping evenly over the prepared fruit mixture in your baking dish.
  7. Step 7: Bake to Perfection - Carefully place the baking dish in your preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes.
