Blueberry Crisp

Juicy sweet blueberries are topped with the warm, cinnamon-kissed crunch of a buttery oat topping in this Blueberry Crisp. This is one dessert you won’t regret!

Blueberries are the star of the show in this dessert, brightened with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. The slightly tart fruit balances the sugar, while the topping adds so much texture to each bite.

One of my favorite things about this blueberry crisp is how versatile the final product is. You can use all kinds of toppings to fancy things up, serve it on its own, or add the classic scoop of ice cream.

Let’s be real here–a scoop of vanilla ice cream, slowly melting into the warm crisp is enough to kick this dish into high gear. But, you can also use caramel sauce, whipped cream, chocolate shavings, powdered sugar… the list goes on!

But, the true beauty of a fruit crisp is in its simplicity. Crisps are easy to make and one of the most forgiving baked goods. So, whether you’re a novice or an expert, this is a recipe that belongs in your dessert rotation.

Blueberry Crisp Recipe

• frozen blueberries
• fresh lemon juice
• sugar
• cornstarch and salt
• oats and flour
• brown sugar and cinnamon
• butter

To start this recipe, preheat your oven to 350°F. Then, grease an 8×8 baking dish with butter. Place the blueberries in a large bowl.

Next, drizzle the berries with lemon juice and sprinkle them with sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Stir well to coat before transferring to the greased baking dish.

In the same mixing bowl used for the berries, stir together the oats, flour, brown sugar, and pecans. Then, add the butter and stir with a fork until large crumbs form. Scatter the topping over the berries in the baking dish.

Bake for 28-30 minutes, until the crisp topping has browned and the fruit liquids are bubbling. Serve warm or at room temperature topped with vanilla ice cream.
