Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 10 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 cups blueberries
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- ½ tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8 baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring there is a 1” overhang.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted butter and vanilla, stirring to mix well.
- Press ⅔ of the crust mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan and set the remainder aside.
