In another bowl, mix together crisp topping ingredients. Using a fork or your fingers mix the ingredietns together until crumbles form. Pour generously onto the top of the fruit crisps.
Place mason jars onto an aluminum foil lined baking sheet. Bake for 35 minutes or until the crisp toppings are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool before serving.
