How to Make American Blueberry Crumble

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking dish (or a 9x13 inch pan if doubling the recipe).
  3. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups fresh blueberries, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup cornstarch, ¼ cup orange juice (or apple cider), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat, ensuring blueberries remain whole.
  4. Set the blueberry filling aside.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Stir in ½ cup rolled oats and ¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional).
  8. Pour the blueberry filling into the prepared baking dish.
  9. Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the fruit.
  10. Bake for 30-50 minutes (add 20 minutes if using a 9x13 inch pan), or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling and thickened.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
