Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small ramekin or oven-safe dish.
For blueberries, toss them with 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. For apples, toss the diced apple with the same quantities of sugar and lemon juice.
Place the prepared fruit in the bottom of the greased ramekin and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Add the cubed butter to the oat mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the fruit in the ramekin, covering the fruit completely.
Place the ramekin on a baking sheet to catch any overflow. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
