This easy Blueberry and Apple Crumble is made with blueberries, sliced apples, and a crispy brown sugar oat topping. The perfect easy dessert for fall or any time of year!
Ingredients
To make this recipe, you will need the following ingredients: blueberries, apples, lemon juice and zest, honey, cornstarch, cinnamon, whole wheat flour, uncooked rolled oats, light brown sugar, butter, and salt.
How to Make this Blueberry and Apple Crumble
1. Heat oven to 375F degrees. Next, combine apples, blueberries, honey, cinnamon, lemon juice and zest in large bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss until fruit is coated. Place fruit filling in an ungreased dish. I used a 9×13-inch baking dish (a similar size pie dish or square baking dish will work too).
2. For the crumble topping, combine whole wheat flour, uncooked rolled oats, light brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt in the same bowl. Sprinkle the oat crumble topping over fruit.
3. Finally, bake about 40 – 45 minutes or until topping is golden brown and fruit is tender.
Apples are a nutritional powerhouse, offering a wide range of health benefits. They are packed with fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, promoting digestive health, reducing the risk of chronic diseases, and boosting overall well-being. Enjoying this delicious fruit is a tasty way to enhance our health.
I used Granny Smith apples in this blueberry apple crumble recipe. But here are other great apples for baking :
Golden Delicious, Fuji, SweeTango, Honeycrisp, Jonagold, and/or Pink Lady.
Blueberries have exceptional health benefits as well. These tiny, vibrant berries are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber, making them a nutritional powerhouse. Consuming blueberries can enhance brain function, protect against oxidative stress, and improve heart health. Their anti-inflammatory properties may also reduce the risk of chronic diseases and support healthy aging.
I like to use fresh blueberries for this apple blueberry crumble recipe but frozen blueberries can also work.
