Ingredients
For the crust
- 1 ½ cup (190g) all-purpose flour
- 2 cups (200g) rolled oats
- 3/4 cup (150g) sugar
- 1 tsp (4g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp (2g) salt

Blueberry Filling
- 20 oz (600g) fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup ¼ cup (50g) sugar
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- juice from a lemon
Instructions
Prepare the crust.
- Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Slightly grease a 9x13 inch (23x33cm) pan and line with parchment paper, in such a way that some edges are longer to make it easy to lift it up once it's set.
- In a bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add butter and vanilla and stir until combined and crumbly.
- Press ⅔ of the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pan.
Prepare the blueberry filling.
- Place the blueberries into a bowl. Add sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch and toss to coat. Spread the blueberries over the crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved ⅓ crumb mixture over the blueberries.
- Bake for 40- 50 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Cool completely before cutting into bars.
- Keep the leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
