Blueberry Dessert Bars Recipe
Ingredients:
1 can blueberry pie filling, 26 oz
1 pint blueberries, fresh
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups oats
3/4 cup sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Spray or grease a 9 x 13 baking dish and set aside. Wash your fresh berries and place them in a medium-sized bowl. Add 1/4 cup of your sugar to the fresh berries, mix and allow them to sit for 10 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together your flour, oats, 1/2 cup of sugar, cinnamon and baking soda. Cut in your butter so that it looks like coarse crumbs (somewhere around the size of small peas). When it all adheres together during baking, these will form your crumbles.
Gently stir to incorporate. Set 1 cup of the mixture aside (for the topping) and press the rest into the bottom of your greased baking dish.
Pour your pie filling onto the top of the mixture in the pan. Now, spoon the fresh blueberries and any juice on top of the pie filling. Top the berry mixture with the cup of oat/flour mixture that you set aside. Sprinkle the very top of everything with brown sugar. Bake for 25 minutes or until the top is brown and the sides are bubbling.
Once ready, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
