Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a bowl, mix the berries and cornstarch. (If using thawed frozen fruit, use the higher amount of cornstarch.) Pour the fruit into an 8" x 8" glass baking dish.

In a small bowl, combine the honey, oats, wheat germ, brown sugar, cinnamon, and almonds. Spread over the berry mixture. Bake for 30 minutes.

Remove the dish from the oven and top evenly with the chocolate chips. Return the dish to the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is melted. Serve warm topped with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.
