Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

Blueberry filling:

• ▢ 750 g fresh blueberries
• ▢ 125 g soft light brown sugar
• ▢ 25 g cornflour
• ▢ 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves (chopped (1.5 tsp after chopping))
• ▢ 2 tsp lemon zest (approx zest from 1 small lemon)
• ▢ ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
• ▢ a pinch of salt

Crumble topping:

• ▢ 150 g oat flour (gluten free)
• ▢ 75 g soft light brown sugar
• ▢ a pinch of salt
• ▢ 100 g dairy free block butter ((not spreadable margarine))
• ▢ 75 g rolled oats (gluten free)

Instructions

 

To make the filling:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C fan (200°C conventional / 400°F / gas mark 6).
• Add the blueberry filling ingredients (blueberries, sugar, cornflour, thyme, lemon zest, cinnamon and salt) to a large bowl and stir to combine.
  750 g fresh blueberries, 125 g soft light brown sugar, 25 g cornflour, 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves, 2 tsp lemon zest, 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon, a pinch of salt
• Transfer the filling to a large baking dish - we used 22cm diameter x 5 cm deep (9" x 2") round dish.
• Place the baking dish in the oven (without the crumble topping) for 20 minutes. We recommend using a tray underneath in case the filling bubbles over.

To make the crumble topping:

• In a bowl stir together the oat flour, 75g brown sugar and a pinch of salt.
  150 g oat flour, 75 g soft light brown sugar, a pinch of salt
• Rub in the butter until the mixture is the consistency of breadcrumbs.
  100 g dairy free block butter
• Add the oats and stir the mixture to combine.
  75 g rolled oats
• Once the blueberry filling has been in the oven for 20 minutes take it out and give it a good stir to ensure any remaining flour/sugar is mixed in.
• Sprinkle over the crumble topping and bake for a further 25 minutes until the topping is golden.
• Serve with dairy free vanilla ice cream, custard or cream.
