Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and mix until a dough forms.

Press two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.

In another bowl, gently toss the blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until well combined.

Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust.

Crumble the remaining dough over the blueberry layer.
-
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling.

Allow to cool completely before slicing into bars.

Serve and enjoy!
