A pan of these lasted on the counter for approximately 4.7 seconds.
The vultures (aka my boys) attacked these blueberry bars with a vengeance…and I quickly regretted not doubling up on these.
Now, I know for certain that the next time I make these (likely tomorrow!), I’ll double up and make in a 9×13 pan.
How to Make Blueberry Crumble Bars – Photo Tutorial
Mix up a crumbly bottom and top layer…
Press the bottom layer into the dish, top with the blueberry filling and then add the remaining crumble mixture.
Bake.
Note: I highly recommend lining the dish with foil, as these are called “crumble bars” and they will…crumble đŸ˜‰
So once they are baked, carefully lift the foil out and place on the cooling rack to cool. The cooler they are (room temp or even chilled), the easier they will be to cut and handle for eating.
Breakfast, Snack or Dessert – you decide!!!
