Is there any better way to enjoy blueberries than an old fashion blueberry crisp recipe? The dark, sweet-tart berries and that chewy, crisp top is one of the great combinations of all time.

This blueberry crisp recipe is a delicious way to get these incredibly nutritious berries into your diet. Blueberries are on all the "super foods" lists due to their very high levels of anti-oxidants.

Serves 6

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups fresh blueberries, washed, drained well
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup quick cooking rolled oats
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 stick softened butter (4 tbsp)

Preparation:

  1. In a bowl combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, corn starch, and lemon juice, and mix to combine evenly. Pour into a lightly buttered baking dish.

  2. In the same bowl combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, oats, salt, and butter. Stir with a fork until the mixture is crumbly and evenly blended. Spread the mixture over the berries and bake at 375 degrees F. for 40 minutes. Let cool to warm before serving.

Easy and Good, Member imppress

The topping looked sparse but that lets the fruit star in the show. I mashed the crumble mixture with my hands, the fork was too clumsy. I also didn't feel I could coat the blueberries with a utensil either, I used my hands to break up the globs of lemon juice and sugar. We used grainy, tart winter blueberries that weren't worth eating and everyone had second helpings of the crisp. Planning to try this same recipe with other fruit.
