Equipment

1 pastry cutter
1 9x13 baking pan

Ingredients

For The Crumb

3 cups flour
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold butter cubed
1 egg

For The Filling

4 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup white sugar
4 tsp corn starch
3 Tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine the flour, white sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and mix with a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat the egg and stir it into the crumb mixture. Press half of this mixture into the bottom of a greased 9 x 13-inch pan.
In another bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, white sugar, corn starch, and lemon juice. Gently toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.
Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the pressed crumb layer in the pan. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the blueberries.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting into squares.
