I do not care for currants, or dried fruit for that matter, in baked good. I used chopped almonds, and also added 2 TB cinnamon. While I thought these were pretty good, they were a bit too dry for my taste. If I were going to eat these with butter or jam, they'd be fine, but on their own they were a little too dry. Good flavor, however. Next time, I think I will use less oats.

Used whole wheat flour; only 2 C sugar instead of 3 as per other reviews & it was plenty sweet; used 1 TBS cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger, 1 tsp allspice, 1 tsp nutmeg, 1/2 tsp cardamom which was just enough spice; used scant 1/2C oil and replaced the other 1/2 C oil with 1/2 more pumpkin. And I made muffins instead of bread. An incredible recipe that I will make again and again!

Delicious! I used 2 bags of frozen blueberries. This amount was perfect for a 9x13 crisp. I did not add sugar to the berries, though I wish I had. I think not only would the berries have been a bit sweeter, but the sugar helps to make a gooier berry layer. I tried only adding half the butter (3/4 C) as suggested in other recipes. This amount was not enough. I had a good amount of dry ingredients that remained uncooked on top of the berry layer. Next time I will either use a full cup of butter, or add some applesauce or nonfat yogurt to the dry ingredients.
