Key ingredients

Cinnamon · Salt

  1. Prepare the crisp: Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, toss the strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries with both sugars, the lemon zest, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a large cast-iron skillet and scatter the butter on top.
  2. Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, mix the crushed matzo with the butter, both sugars, cinnamon, and salt until evenly moistened. Sprinkle the topping over the berries and bake for about 40 minutes, until the fruit is bubbling. Let the crisp cool for at least 30 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream.
