These bars exceptionally simple (and quick!) to create, thus no excuses… grab an enormous instrumentation of plump, juicy blueberries and hop into the kitchen!
Prepare yourself for the actual fact that you simply can still cut “just a touch piece” till half the pan is gone. It’s unavoidable; simply don’t say I didn’t warn you!

- (about 3 tablespoons)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
- Make the Crumb: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the butter, and then the egg (the dough will be crumbly). Press half of dough into the prepared pan.
- Make the Filling: In a separate large bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Gently fold in the blueberries to coat evenly with the sugar mixture. Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust, drizzling any excess juice in the bowl over the filling. Crumble the remaining dough evenly over the blueberry layer.
