Ingredients
  

For the Blueberry Filling
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries Fresh blueberries are recommended for the best flavor.
  • 1-2 tablespoons brown sugar Used to enhance the blueberries' natural sweetness.
For the Crisp Topping
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Whole wheat flour can be used as a substitute.
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Can substitute with melted coconut oil for a vegan option.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the fresh blueberries with a little bit of brown sugar (about 1-2 tablespoons) to enhance their natural sweetness. Set this bowl aside.
  3. In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in the melted unsalted butter and mix until everything is well combined. The mixture should be crumbly but hold together when pressed.
  4. Spread the blueberries evenly in a greased 8×8 inch baking dish. Evenly distribute the oat topping over the blueberries, covering them completely.
Baking
  1. Put the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbly.
Serving
  1. Let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve alone or with Halal-friendly vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Keep an eye on the crisp during the last few minutes of baking as it can burn quickly. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, pop it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes.
