Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups brown sugar
- 0.75 cups unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups blueberries
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, and brown sugar.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the oat mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the vanilla extract and set aside half of the mixture for the topping.
Press the remaining oat mixture into the prepared baking dish to form the crust, then bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.
Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the baked crust.
Sprinkle the reserved oat topping over the blueberries, ensuring an even layer.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow the treat to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
Serve as-is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
