Description
Like most crisps, this lemon blueberry crisp takes no time to prepare, and if you have a food processor, the topping — a mixture of flour, sugar, almonds and butter — comes together in seconds. The absence of oats and brown sugar in this crisp topping makes it particularly light and allows the lemon-sugared blueberries to really shine.
Ingredients
For the berries:
- 6 cups (960 g) blueberries, washed and stemmed
- zest of one lemon
- 1/4 cup (60 g) sugar
For the topping:
- 3/4 cup (96 g) all-purpose flour

- 1/4 teaspoon table salt (or 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt)
- 1/2 cup (113 g) cold, unsalted butter cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions

- Place blueberries in 9×13-inch baking pan. In a small bowl, rub zest and sugar together with your fingers until sugar is moist and fragrant. Spread over blueberries and toss to combine.
