Ten Minute Blueberry Crisp

While it is a little early for those of you up north, here in Florida May means it’s blueberry picking time! This is one of our favorite family activities and we seriously look forward to it all year–even my four-year-old enjoys it! If you haven’t tried this before, definitely check to see if there are any U-pick farms in your area.

This year we stocked up the freezer with all our bounty, but not before I had a chance to whip up this quick & easy blueberry crisp. It was SOOOOO good! I normally make this super-simple blueberry pie recipe, but this ten minute blueberry crisp was even faster and easier and, dare I say it, at least just as delicious?!

It literally came together in just a few easy minutes of hands-on time–definitely my kind of recipe! If you don’t have fresh blueberries on hand you can also use the frozen variety–Sam’s Club sells them in 3 lb bags for around $10.

 Here is what you need:

Step 1:  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using softened butter, grease a 13×9″ baking dish; set aside.

Step 2: In large bowl, toss blueberries with sugar, cornstarch, 2 tablespoons flour, lemon juice, water, and vanilla until blueberries are well coated.

Step 3: Spread blueberries into prepared baking dish.

Step 4: In medium bowl, blend 1 1/2 cups flour, salt, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

Step 5: Melt butter in microwave, then pour melted butter into oat mixture. Mix well.

Step 6:  Use fingers to crumble oat mixture over top of blueberries. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes until mixture is bubbly and topping is golden brown.

Step 7:  Let cool for at least 30 minutes; serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
