Blueberry Crisp
Blueberry Crisp is a fantastic fruit dessert. This one is made with layer a blueberry pie filling layer on the bottom and it’s topped with a wonderful oatmeal streusel topping. If you’re a blueberry fan, this delightful dessert will rock your world! While I used blueberry pie filling in the recipe, you can substitute fresh blueberries in the recipe with good results.

Back in April, our daughter-in-law gave birth to a second daughter. I offered to make as many meals as they wanted which ended up being enough for a week. Then her mom flew in and took over the kitchen duties! One night, I made a Honey-Dijon Chicken, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Creamy Sweet Corn, Homemade rolls, a Fruit and Feta Spinach Salad and this Blueberry Crisp.
I modeled this recipe off of an Apple Crisp recipe that’s our favorite. My daughter-in-law enjoys fruity desserts (especially my homemade pies and homemade pie crust). I thought they would enjoy this recipe too. Her sister was there for the first week and she needs to eat gluten free so I whipped up a batch of Gluten Free Brownies from a box mix for her to enjoy.
This recipe is for a 9×13″ glass baking dish. Instead, I made it in two 9×9″ glass baking dishes. I sent one for my son and daughter-in-law and kept another one here for us. So this is a great dessert for company or potlucks especially if you add a dollop of ice cream on top! Enjoy.
Blueberry Crisp is particularly good served warm with ice cream!
If you enjoy blueberry desserts, this one is so simple and easy to whip up.
There’s nothing like a little vanilla ice cream on top of fruity desserts!
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients for the blueberry filling layer. However, you can substitute about 6-8 cups of fresh blueberries for the blueberry pie filling, if desired.
Spoon pie filling into a mixing bowl.
Add water, granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon.
Stir to combine.
Spoon blueberry filling into one 9×13″ glass baking dish or two 9×9″ glass baking dishes.
I used these ingredients for the streusel topping.
Combine unbleached flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods), brown sugar, oatmeal, baking powder and baking soda in a mixing bowl.
Stir ingredients to combine.
Add melted butter.
Stir ingredients with a fork to combine.
Spread over top of blueberry filling in baking dish.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.
If desired, serve warm with ice cream.
While I used blueberry pie filling in the recipe, you can just as easily use fresh blueberries, if desired.
Blueberry Crisp is also good served plain.
Here’s the recipe.

I love this. I made it with cranberries all mixed together. It turned out great. We ate with Madagascar vanilla ice cream. Thanks again.
