Yummy Blueberry Crumble

I missed last week. Completely. On many, many levels. But I’m back – and check it out, posts two days in a row now. Whew.

This week’s recipe is one that is in the oven as I type. I whipped it up in about ten minutes – if that – for two pretty good reasons. The first is that I’m making dinner for some friends tomorrow and need something to go with my lemon chicken kebabs. And second, I have a review I’m putting up that requires me first making a blueberry cobbler.

So I am.

Well, sorta. The say they want a blueberry cobbler, but the recipe they provided is really for a blueberry crumble. And me being me, I can’t blindly follow the recipe (especially when it calls for blueberry pie filling), so I made a few tweaks. And it looks good so far.

Oops – timer just went off. Now I can prove myself right!

As usual, I’m going for homemade, pretty quick and easy, and of course something yummy! I love recipes like this because they’re so flexible and forgiving. I literally used no recipe and didn’t measure everything, so feel free to do the same.

Blueberry Crumble

Filling

Ingredients:
3 c frozen (or fresh) blueberries
3/4 c sugar
1 lemon, squeezed and zested
1 t vanilla
1 T flour
1 T butter (or CF butter substitute, since I made mine dairy free)

Directions:
Mix everything together in the 8×8 dish you’re cooking it in.

Topping

Ingredients:
1 c flour
1 1/2 c oats
1/3 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1 t cinnamon
1/4 t nutmeg, fresh grated
1 c butter (less the 1 T you used in the filling), melted

Directions:
Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly with a fork, then make a well in the center. Pour in the butter (or butter substitute) and use the fork to mix until just moistened. You want it in chunks and crumbly.

Pour the topping over the blueberries in the pan.

Place in a 400 degree oven for 30-35 minutes until the top is lightly browned and slightly crunchy and the blueberries underneath start to bubble out.

Let cool to room temperature, and enjoy!
