So far, it looks like I might actually have some blueberries to pick in my garden this year. Of course, I say that every year and every year a bunch of birds swoop in and make a point of ruining my day.
NOT THIS YEAR.
This is my reminder to myself - nets. It's almost time for the nets.
Otherwise, how will I make Blueberry Crisp? (Spoiler: I will regardless thanks to the magic of stores.)
Blueberry Crisp
4 cups blueberries
1/3 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon corn starch
2 cups oatmeal
1 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the blueberries, white sugar, and corn starch in a 9x13" baking dish. Spread the mixture evenly across the dish.
In a large bowl, combine the oatmeal, butter, brown sugar, and flour. (A hand mixer works fine, but I actually prefer to just use my hands. Fewer things to clean when I'm done, y'know?) Sprinkle the oatmeal mixture over the fruit. Then bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
It's amazing served warm, especially with a scoop of ice cream. Or without ice cream. Really, it's amazing no matter what you do.
