Ingredients

For the crust and topping:

  • 1 c. flour
  • ¾ c. oats
  • 1/3 c. sugar
  • 1/3 c. brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 stick butter softened
  • 1 egg yolk

For the filling:

  • 2 c. fresh blueberries
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ c. sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8 x 8 baking dish with foil. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl combine the flour, oats, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
  • Add in the butter and mix until a crumble forms. Stir in the egg yolk.
  • Remove 1 cup of the crumble mixture from the bowl. Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • In a medium bowl toss the blueberries with the lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Pour over top of the crust in the pan.
  • Sprinkle the remaining crumble on top of the blueberries.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crumble is firm.
  • I like to put the broiler on for 1 minute to darken the crumble but this is optional.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack.
  • When ready to serve remove the bars from the pan using the foil. Cut into squares. Enjoy!
