Ingredients
6 cups ripe plums, pitted and sliced

1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 cup old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, combine sliced plums, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Toss well to coat.
3. Transfer the plum mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
4. In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Pour in melted butter and vanilla; stir until crumbly.

You can substitute half of the plums with peaches or berries for variation.
