Blueberry Crisp

This Blueberry Crisp is the perfect spring and summer dessert! The blueberries are juicy and sweet, all while topped with the most amazing crumble!

Whenever I make fruit and berry crisps I have to make a little extra crumble. I’ve been doing this for ages now. I love the crumble! The texture of the oats, sweetness of the brown sugar, and the hint of cinnamon is perfection!

You know I made more crumble for this blueberry crisp recipe! In fact, the blueberry filling to crumble ratio is 1:1. Yes! You get the same amount of blueberry filling and crumble in every. Single. Bite. What more could you want in a berry crisp recipe?!

I made this crisp last year and my family and I loved it! I added a little more cornstarch to make the filling to make a tad thicker and less runny.

This blueberry crisp is so delicious and it’s sooooo easy to make!

Can you use frozen blueberries to make Blueberry Crisp

Yes.

I had a lot of fresh blueberries on hand, so I opted to use those. However, I’ve made this blueberry crisp with frozen blueberries and the results are phenomenal.

How to make Blueberry Crisp

If you’re using fresh blueberries rinse them off, place them in a bowl and add the sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice.

Place the sugared blueberries in a baking dish. Now, prepare the crumble.

Once all of the ingredients have been added to the bowl, cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender.

Place the crumble over the blueberries. Now comes the hard part, waiting!

I highly recommend you serve this blueberry crisp warm with a side of cold vanilla ice cream. YUM! I need to make more of this stat.
