- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine 4 cups of fresh blueberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Toss to coat the blueberries evenly, then spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

- Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the blueberries in the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Allow the blueberry crisp to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Blueberry crisp is a classic dessert that originated in the United States. It is believed to have been created in the early 20th century, gaining popularity during the 1950s. This delicious dish consists of a layer of sweetened blueberries topped with a crumbly mixture of butter, flour, oats, and sugar, then baked until golden and bubbly. Chefs and home cooks across the country have put their own spin on this timeless recipe, with variations in the type of oats used, the addition of spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, and the choice of sweeteners. The best versions of this dish can be found in the Northeastern United States, particularly in Maine and Massachusetts, where blueberries are abundant and celebrated. The key to a perfect blueberry crisp lies in using fresh, ripe blueberries and achieving the ideal balance of sweetness and tartness in the filling, while ensuring the topping is crispy and golden. For a unique twist, some chefs incorporate ingredients like lemon zest or almond extract to enhance the flavor profile. Whether served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, blueberry crisp is a beloved dessert that continues to delight food enthusiasts of all ages.
