Blueberry Crisp

William (Uncle Bill) Anatooskin's Note:

A fabulous dessert at any occasion. I have been making this recipe for over 25 years. I am not too sure where it came from. We have an abundance of blueberries in our area and I freeze them in separate packages to use when necessary.

I love this no-fuss, no-bake dessert! It's lighter than a cobbler, but very yum! Be sure to mix your flour mixture well (mine was kinda lumpy). You can also sprinkle some cocoa or nutmeg to finish it up. Thank you for the recipe!

Very easy! I prepared the blueberries in the microwave as directed, but I baked the final crisp in the oven. Yummy!

Great recipe... my husband ate the whole thing! I did add some lemon to the blueberry mixture to tone down the sweetness. A little zest to the crisp. I did make a double batch of the crisp for topping and added a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon and baked it for about 15 mins at 350. Excellent!
