Blueberry Oatmeal Bars

Blueberry Oatmeal Bars are easy to make, have great Blueberry Oatmeal cookie flavor, and are perfect for parties and family outings or holiday celebrations.
While my best flavor has changed many times over the monthlys, the favorite of the majority in this home are the Blueberry.Creating a perfect harmony of taste and texture.

You know that feeling when you swear you will make a healthy snack and then you somehow end up making dessert and that was exactly me last Saturday because I had this whole wholesome breakfast plan going with oats and blueberries and no nonsense yet somewhere between stirring the filling and taste testing and maybe even over testing the crumble topping it turned into something.

Dangerously delicious and the funny part is that these bars were supposed to last all week yet spoiler alert they did not as my kids inhaled half the pan before they had even cooled and I cannot exactly blame them since have you ever bitten into something.

So warm and jammy that you instantly forget the word portion and the first time I tried this I thought alright it is fruit and oats so it is totally fine to have three or maybe four and there is no judgment if you eat them straight from the baking dish because trust me I have been there and here is a little tip from experience that if your

blueberries start bubbling over the sides then do not panic since that messy and sticky edge is actually the best bite hands down.

Kitchen Equipment Needed :

• Mixing bowls (large and medium)
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Whisk or fork
• Spatula or wooden spoon
• 8×8-inch baking pan
• Parchment paper
• Oven mitts
• Knife for slicing bars
• Cooling rack

Tips for Blueberry Oatmeal Bars :

If using frozen blueberries, don’t thaw them first this keeps the filling from getting too watery.

Let them cool completely before slicing to avoid a messy texture.

You can drizzle a light glaze of powdered sugar and milk over the top for a sweeter finish.

Ingredients :

• 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
• 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted

How to Make Blueberry Oatmeal Bars :

Step 1

First of all, we have to Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later and Make the crust and topping: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the mixture looks crumbly but sticks together when pressed.

Step 2

Press most of the mixture into the pan about two-thirds to create the base. Make sure it’s evenly spread and pressed down firmly after that Prepare the blueberry filling: In a medium bowl, mix blueberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir gently until the berries are coated then Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the oat crust in the baking pan.

Step 3

Finally Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture over the top of the blueberries, letting some berries peek through for a pretty look and Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbly then Cool completely in the pan before lifting out and slicing into bars. This helps them set and hold their shape.
