Ingredients

  • For the filling:
  • 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries no thawing needed for frozen
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar adjust if berries are extra sweet
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice brightens everything
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch for that perfect thickened juice
  • For the topping:
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats hello, crunch!
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed (caramel vibes)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon optional, but totally worth it
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted (the richer, the better)
  • Optional add-ins:
  • Chopped nuts pecans or almonds for extra crunch
  • A pinch of nutmeg for warmth

Instructions

  • Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab an 8x8-inch baking dish and lightly grease it. This is where the magic happens.
  • Mix the berries: In a medium bowl, toss the blueberries with sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and cornstarch. Make sure every berry is coated—think of it like a blueberry spa day.
  • Transfer to dish: Pour the berry mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
  • Make the topping: In a separate bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until crumbly. Yes, it should feel like sand but in the best way.
  • Top the berries: Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the blueberry filling. Don’t skimp—it’s the best part.
  • Bake: Slide the dish into the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berries are bubbly.
  • Cool slightly: Let it sit for 5–10 minutes before digging in. FYI, it’s super tempting to eat it straight from the oven, but patience will be rewarded.
