I should warn you, there will probably be many blueberry recipes posted soon. My sisters college roommate has a family farm and her mom can't take care of it all by herself. Last weekend sis and I went and plucked blueberries. I have 28 cups of them frozen in my freezer. This is one of my fav recipes.
3 cups all purpose flour
2 cups sugar (divided)
2 cups old fashioned oat (I use organic from EarthFare)
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teasp baking powder
1/4 teasp salt
the zest from one lemon
the juice from said lemon
1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg
4 teasp corn starch
4 cups fresh organic blueberries
Preheat oven to 375 and butter a 9x13 pan.
Combine flour, 1 cup sugar, oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest. Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut in butter and egg. It will be very crumbly and look like the butter is lumpy, but that's ok. Pat half of this into the 9x13 pan.
In another bowl stir together remaining 1 cup sugar, lemon juice and cornstartch. It will be gritty and syrupy. Fold in berries. When berries are coated, layer them in the pan. Plop the remaining crumble on top and try to pat it out without smashing the berries.
Bake until top browns, about 35-45 mins. Let cool and enjoy! It's great with homemade vanilla ice cream.
