What Is The Difference Between a Crisp and Crumble?
This is a delicious blueberry crisp recipe. It is a blueberry crisp since it has a topping that is made with oats. Usually, crisps are made with oats and crumbles are made with flour and no oats.

What Oats To Use?
The oat topping for this blueberry crisp is made with quick oats. We used quick oats since they are smaller than rolled oats and because they will cook faster for this individual blueberry crisp. Also, the crisp is not in the oven as long as a larger crisp would be so the quick oats have time to bake perfectly.
What If I Don’t Have Quick Oats?
We recommend using quick oats in this recipe because it gives you the perfect crispy oat topping. If you don’t have quick oats you can quickly pulse rolled oats in a food processor so they are slightly finer. If you do this, make sure not to turn the oats into oat flour.
Why Add Lemon Juice?
A splash of lemon juice adds another dimension of flavor to this blueberry crisp.
What Butter To Use?
You will need one tablespoon of butter for this recipe. We used Land O Lakes Light Butter.

First, add the blueberries, sweetener, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to a bowl. Then, mix these ingredients.
