Ingredients

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon powder, and salt. Mix well to combine.

Step 3

Pour the melted butter and vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Stir until the mixture becomes crumbly but cohesive.

Step 4

Set aside about 1 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping. Press the remaining mixture firmly into the prepared baking pan to form the crust.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, mix together the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until the blueberries are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust in the pan.

Step 7

Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top of the blueberries, covering them as evenly as possible.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling slightly.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the pan cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the squares out of the pan and transfer them to a cutting board.

Step 10

Cut into 12 squares and serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
