Saturday Share Recipe - Blueberry Crumble Bake

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I love blueberries, that super fruit that is so good for your brain and other crucial parts of the human body.

I buy a carton of them every time I shop. Mostly I eat them fresh, but sometimes I make a blueberry dessert with them—a take on blueberry pie but instead of a double pie crust, I make a crumble crust.

This is a pie you can easily make if traditional pastry crust frustrates you.

I reduced the amount of sugar that was originally called for in this old recipe because it was too sweet to us.

Actually, I’ve done this with a lot of old recipes. I guess since we don’t eat much sweets many of them taste too sweet when made according to the original recipe.

By the way, if you use AP flour, add 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt.

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE BAKE

Serves 8-10.

Crust Ingredients

2 1/2 cups rolled oats

2 1/2 cups self-rising flour

1 3/4 cups sugar

3 sticks of butter

Filling Ingredients

3 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

2 cups chopped pecans (or your favorite nut or omit completely)

3/4 cup brown sugar (can use white)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (176.7°C)

2. Prepare crust by mixing all ingredients together. Mixture will be crumbly.

3. Divide crust dough into 2 pieces. Line bottom and sides of baking dish (either 10 inch pie plate or 9×13 inch dish). Press dough to a quarter inch thickness.

4. Prepare filling by mixing all ingredients in a large bowl. Pour into the crust-lined dish.

5. Crumble the remaining dough crust into pieces over the filling.

6. Bake for 15 minutes then raise the temperature to 375°F (190.5°C) and bake for 15 minutes more or until golden brown.

Serve hot or cold.
