I just made this! I "winged it", so to speak, as I don't have a recipe for it. I used frozen berries, as that's all I had. It's great! To bad I don't have any ice cream.
Blueberry Crisp
Yields: 4 - 6 servings
Now that I live in Michigan, I’ve been exposed to a lot of the different berries that can be grown here. I’ve developed a soft spot for blueberries. I’m even thinking about growing some.
½ c all-purpose flour
1/8 t baking powder
1/8 t baking soda
½ c packed brown sugar
½ c quick-cooking oats
¼ c butter, softened
1# blueberries, fresh or frozen
½ c sugar
1 t lemon juice, or to taste, optional
If using frozen blueberries, thaw them.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Sift together 1 c of the flour, baking powder, baking soda, oats, and brown sugar. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or your hands. It should have a mealy texture, similar to coarse sand. Set aside.
Mix the blueberries with the sugar and lemon juice. Pour into an 8 x 8” baking dish. Add the topping over the berries. Bake for 30 minutes, check, and give them another 15 minutes if needed (usually for the frozen berries). Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
This dessert just begs for some ice cream!
