Easy Blueberry Crumble Recipe

Are you enjoying all the summer fruits in season this year? Or shall I say are you taking full advantage of all the fresh fruits and veggies in season.
For me? it’s not just enjoy them; but save them for future if I can. Meaning jamming and freezing when possible.

Blueberries have got to be one of my favorite fruits. Not just because they are so healthy but also they are tart and sweet all at the same time. During the year I often use frozen blueberries but fresh…. now that’s something else ! Isn’t it?

Unfortunately, weather I get them fresh or frozen they are do darn expensive here. We still buy when possible but not as much as when we were in the US. I remember I’d throw in a few blueberries every morning with my cereal. Here it’s a luxury.

Easy Blueberry Crumble Recipe

Let’s talk Ingredients and Substitutes

• Blueberries –   This crumble work with fresh or frozen.  If using frozen you can keep the amount of sugar unless the frozen says sweetened ! Some brands use sugar as a preservative so read the label please.
• White granulated sugar – Personally I like my crumble topping to be a lighter color so I prefer to use white. You can easily substitute with light or brown sugar with the same quantity. Take note that brown sugar does contain molasses so it will influence the taste and flavor accordingly.
• Unsalted Butter – I always use unsalted because I like to control the amount of salt I use. If you use salted butter that’s fine just omit salt in the recipe. Margarine or veg shortening works as well but they both will affect the texture of the crumble – margarine has a bit more liquid so you may need to use a tad less. Veg shorting will make the crumble topping more crispy.
• Cornstarch – Peaches are very juicy and the cornstarch help thicken the juices which taste yum.
• Spice mix – There is so much flavor you can add like pumpkin spice or gingerbread spice, cinnamon, nutmeg. I will admit that when it comes to my crumble I often prefer the fruit to shine thru so I will leave it as is. A dash of vanilla in the crumble is all it needs for me.

Don’t you just love all those juices spilling over…..! yum!
