    Remove 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.

    Serve 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!
