3To prepare the blueberries : Place the berries in a microwave-safe bowl , and heat them for ⏱️ 4-5 minutes , until they're thawed and beginning to warm. Do this if you're using fresh berries, as well; it helps get their juices going.blueberries: 6-7 cups (680g to 850g, frozen), juices: 2 tablespoons (lemon, 28g)
-
4Combine the berries with the remaining filling ingredients, and spoon the mixture into the prepared pan.filling

5Place the pan in the oven, and bake the blueberries for ⏱️ 30 minutes , until they start to bubble. While they're baking, prepare the topping .topping
-
6To prepare the topping: Whisk together the dry ingredients. Add the melted butter and flavors, mixing until coarse crumbs form.butter: 3 tablespoons (43g, melted)
-
7Remove the berries from the oven, and spread the topping on tops. Bake for an additional ⏱️ 45 minutes , until the berries are bubbling and the topping is beginning to brown. Some of the topping will have been engulfed by blueberry juice, leaving your crisp with a somewhat mottled top; this is perfectly fine.
-
8Remove the crisp from the oven, and allow it to cool completely before serving. If you serve the crisp right away, it'll be very liquid; letting it to set up allows the berries to reabsorb some of their juices.

9Serve the crisp plain, or à la mode. Heat it briefly (about ⏱️ 30 seconds ) in the microwave, if desired, to provide a nice warm bed for the ice cream!
