Blueberry Bars With Oatmeal Crumble Topping Food

BLUEBERRY-OATMEAL CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 2-quart baking dish.
• Make the filling: Toss the blueberries, granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice and salt in a medium bowl. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• Make the topping: Combine the brown sugar, flour, oats, nuts, lemon zest, cinnamon and salt in a separate bowl. Using your fingers or a pastry blender, work the butter into the flour mixture until coarse crumbs form. Scatter the topping over the blueberry mixture.
• Set the dish on a baking sheet and bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

BLUEBERRY OATMEAL CRUMBLE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper leaving an overhang around the edges. Or line with aluminium foil leaving an overhang around the edges and grease with non-stick cooking spray.

BLUEBERRY BARS WITH OATMEAL CRUMBLE TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray; set aside. Lining the pan helps with cleanup and is recommended.
• In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
• Add the flour, oats, sugars, optional salt, and stir to combine. Mixture will be dry and sandy with some larger, well-formed crumble pieces.
• Set 1 heaping cup mixture aside to be sprinkled on later as crumble topping.
• Transfer remaining mixture to prepared pan, and using a spatula or your fingers, hard-pack the mixture to create an even, smooth, flat crust; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl (same one used for crust and crumble is okay), add all ingredients and toss to combine. If sugar hasn't dissolved fully that's okay because it liquifies while baking.
• Evenly distribute blueberry mixture over the crust.
• Evenly sprinkle with the reserved heaping 1 cup crumble topping mixture. Before sprinkling, I squeeze the mixture in my palm to encourage bigger crumble pieces to form.
• Bake for about 55 minutes, or until edges are set and center has just set. Crumble topping should appear set and very pale golden. I used frozen berries without thawing and the pan was very cold going into the oven. If using fresh berries, baking time will be reduced, but I'm not sure by how much, I'd guess at least 10-15 minutes, possibly less. Bars may take longer than 55 minutes if blueberries are very juicy. Watch your bars, not the clock, when evaluating doneness.
• Place pan on a wire rack and allow bars to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. If you try to slice bars before they've cooled completely, they'll be extremely messy and could fall apart. Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, in the fridge for up to 10 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Combine flour, oats, 1 cup sugar, cinnamon, and baking soda in a large bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve about 2 cups flour-butter mixture. Press remaining mixture into the prepared baking dish to form a crust.
• Bring blueberries, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice to a boil in a saucepan, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened, about 2 minutes. Spread blueberry mixture over crust and sprinkle with reserved oat mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until topping is just browned, about 25 minutes. Cool before cutting and serving.

OATMEAL WITH BLUEBERRY SAUCE AND CRUMBLE TOPPING

Steps:

• For the sweet crumble: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, cashews, pecans, almonds, coconut flakes, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a large bowl. Using your fingers, add in the coconut oil and butter. Mix until a coarse crumb forms and the mixture holds together. Put the mixture on the prepared half sheet pan and bake until golden and crisp, 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• For the oatmeal: Bring 3 cups water, the coconut milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat.
• Meanwhile, heat the coconut oil in a second medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Once glistening, add the oats and cook until toasted, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the water-and-coconut-milk mixture and bring the mixture to a boil, then lower to a simmer over medium heat and cook until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Stir in the chia seeds 1 minute before serving.
• For the blueberry sauce: Put the blueberries, orange zest strip, orange juice, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons water, cinnamon and salt in a third medium saucepan over medium heat. Cover and cook until the blueberries breakdown, about 10 minutes.
• To serve: Place a ladleful of oatmeal into a bowl, top with warm blueberry sauce and sweet crumble.
