Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Gently toss until the blueberries are evenly coated. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Pour the melted butter into the dry mixture and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly and evenly moistened.
Press about two-thirds (approximately 2 cups) of the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form an even base layer.
Distribute the blueberry mixture evenly over the base layer, spreading it out to the edges.
Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the blueberry layer, ensuring it covers the fruit as evenly as possible.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbly.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the blueberry crisp to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes.
Once cooled, slice into squares of your desired size and serve. These can be enjoyed on their own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
