Ingredients

Crumb Topping:

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • ½ cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • ¼ tsp salt

Blueberry Bars:

  • ½ cup coconut oil {room temp}
  • ¾ cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups blueberries washed & patted dry

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line the inside of an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray & set aside.
  • Mix together all of the crumb topping ingredients, the melted butter, brown sugar, flour, and salt. Combine with a fork until large moist crumbs form. Place the topping into the freezer until ready to use. This will help the crumble to retain the desired shape.
  • Whisk together ¾ cups of flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Then, in a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, cream together the coconut oil, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  • Next, add in the eggs, one at a time. Beat well after each addition.
  • Reduce the speed to low and mix in the flour mixture.
  • Proceed to spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and then sprinkle the top with your fresh blueberries.
  • Remove the crumble topping from the freezer and sprinkle over the top of the batter and blueberries. Spread it evenly over the entire pan, you want to make sure each bite has this delicious layer.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden in color, and a toothpick, can be inserted into the center, and only come out with a few moist crumbs. Let it cool completely in the pan.
  • Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the cake out of the pan and onto a flat surface. Cut into 16 same-sized squares. Serve warm and enjoy! If you want to kick this treat up a notch, serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top.
