In my neck of the woods the blueberries are fabulous.

Just in time for a dessert trying out a new riff on my usual granola crust.

It went well…..

Blueberry Granola Crisp

Crust:

  • 1 cup granola

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/3 cup raisins, optional

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 5 tablespoons butter or margarine, cut into chunks

Place the granola, flour, raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a food processor and pulse the ingredients 2-3 times to distribute them evenly. Add the butter and pulse several times until the butter pieces become tiny and distributed evenly within the dry ingredients. Set aside.

Filling:

  • 4 cups blueberries

  • 3 tablespoons sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the ingredients in a baking dish, toss to distribute the ingredients evenly. Cover the fruit with the granola mixture. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the crust is brown and crunchy.

Makes 4-6 servings
