Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, mix blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cornstarch until evenly coated. Transfer to the baking dish.
  3. In another bowl, combine oats, almond flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Add cold butter and work it into the mixture until crumbly with small and large clumps.
  5. Scatter topping evenly over the blueberries without pressing it down.
  6. Bake for 38 to 42 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
  7. Let rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use certified gluten-free oats to ensure the recipe is fully gluten free. For a vegan version, swap butter with coconut oil. Let the crisp rest at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set properly. You can reduce sugar or use maple syrup for a more natural sweetness.
