Blueberry Crumb Bars
Typically I am not a blueberry fan, but even I loved these Blueberry Crumb Bars. I kept mine in the fridge to cool before cutting into squares. I put them back in the fridge and served them cold, which to me was far better tasting then serving at room temperature. Enjoy!
Blueberry Crumb Bars
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup shortening
- 1 egg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon (optional)
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 teaspoons cornstarch
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch pan.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup sugar, 3 cups flour, and baking powder. Mix in salt and cinnamon, if desired. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the shortening and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of dough into the prepared pan.
3. In another bowl, stir together the sugar and cornstarch. Gently mix in the blueberries. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust. Crumble remaining dough over the berry layer.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

Hi Ali 🙂
I followed your link over from Jen's 1lth Heaven Homemaking Monday's.
I have both a son and a sister-in-law who LOVE blueberry creations!!! Reading through your recipe, it sounds tasty, though I must say that I was surprised to find that it doesn't call for any lemon. When I make it, I might try adding a little lemon zest in with the blueberry layer.
I loe blueberries, I have to try to make it 🙂
It supposed to be I love blueberies 🙂 not loe 🙂
Haha, I gotcha Ewa 🙂
YUM! I have a flat of blackberries that I'm going to use this recipe for!

Your killing my DIET!
🙂
Delicious looking bars 🙂
YUM. I think I'd try to modify this recipe by using whole wheat flour and agave nectar instead of white flour and white sugar. Have you made any similar substitutions?
My Oldest LOVES blueberry anything! Can't wait to surprise her with these! Yummy! http://homesandbabies.blogspot.com
Kelly — I haven't. I don't think there would be any issue swapping the type of flour. Swapping sugar for agave nectar, well that is a little different when it comes to baking, but I say go for it if you really want to try it. Who knows, it might work?
These look delicious! Gonna have to make some;)
I love all things blueberry! They look delishh! Haha love your definition for "Jam Hands" too funny.
Delighted Momma
