Blueberry Crisp with Oatmeal

Votes: 2

Time: 1 hour 25 minutes

Summer is the perfect time to switch from heavy, calorie-laden pies to lighter baked goods filled with a wealth of fruits and berries. American blueberry crisps are one such dessert. To make them, fresh blueberries are tossed with sugar and flour and drizzled with lemon juice, which pleasantly balances the sweet blueberry flavor. The berry mixture is then topped with a brown sugar, oatmeal, crushed nuts, flour, and butter filling and baked. The resulting rich blueberry filling is topped with a golden, crunchy streusel with a nutty, caramel flavor. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoy its contrasting textures.
