Blueberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars

SERVES: 9

COOK TIME: 30 Min

Our Blueberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars get their wholesome goodness from rolled oats and that fresh-from-the-berry-patch blueberry taste in every bite. Bake a batch today and we bet you'll agree.

What You'll Need

3 cups fresh Chilean blueberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick butter, melted

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
For filling, in a medium saucepan, stir together blueberries, granulated sugar, orange juice, and cornstarch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often to reduce until mixture is thick and the berries break down, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, for crust and crumble, in a medium bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, orange zest, baking soda, and salt. Add melted butter to blend well. Reserve 3/4 cup for topping.
Press remaining mixture firmly in bottom of pan to form crust. Spoon filling in an even layer. Sprinkle with remaining topping.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes. Cool before cutting.

Oh my goodness these crumble bars sound delicious and are so perfect for snacking or a quick breakfast on the go. Is there something other than orange juice I can use, it doesn't agree with me at all and, do you think it would be ok to use honey or an alternate sugar for this recipe? I'm thinking of trying a mixed berry version with black, blue, and raspberries...will I need to add more of any ingredient if I use a variety of berries?

Hi there! You can use lemon juice or water in place of the orange juice. It's absolutely okay to use a sugar substitute or honey in place of the regular sugar, and you don't need to add any more ingredients if you're using the mixed berries. Phew! I think we covered it all! :D Enjoy!
