Berry Crisp in a Mug

I am transferring all of the recipes from my soon to be defunct food blog to this blog!  Here's a good one!

The girls and I made a fun berry crisp in a mug.  I’ve seen cakes in a mug and other mug treats all over, but a lot of recipes seemed to have mixed reviews.  I felt good about trying a crisp in a mug for some reason, maybe because there wasn’t egg in it or I didn’t have to think about it rising or something.

They really liked it…especially Leah!

 I went the fun mom route and put ice cream on top, but you could totally make this for breakfast and put some vanilla greek yogurt on top instead!

A fun and easy treat in a mug! You can top it with ice cream, whipped cream, or even yogurt!
