There aren’t many things better than a yummy fruit cobbler during those spring and summer months. I love taking advantage of berries when they are in season and using them in a variety of recipes.
Blueberry season means blueberry crisp!

Tips for Preparing to Make This Recipe
- Blueberries: If you don’t have frozen blueberries, fresh berries work just fine as a substitute. If using frozen, there is no need to thaw them beforehand. They can be added right into the recipe with no issue.
- Oats: I prefer to use rolled oats (this is the brand of sprouted rolled oats I love), but you can substitute for old fashioned oats if needed.
- Variations: This recipe can be customized to use different in season berries or whatever you have on hand.

Step by Step Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine the blueberries, einkorn flour, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix together gently, and then pour the blueberry filling into a 9 x 13 baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining rolled oats, flour, cinnamon, salt, and cubed cold butter. Work the butter into the rest of the ingredients using a fork, pastry cutter, or by simply using your hands. You could also add it to the food processor and pulse it a few times until it obtains a crumbly texture.
- Spread the crumble topping mixture over the blueberries, making sure to spread as evenly as you can.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 33-35 minutes or until lightly golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before digging in. Serve warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Yum!
Recipe FAQs
Einkorn wheat is an ancient grain that has not been hybridized like most modern wheat. This results in a flour that is more nutrient dense and packed full of b vitamins (unlike modern flour), with more protein and a lower gluten content that is much easier to digest, making it a good option for folks with gluten sensitivities.
I find that with most any fruit cobbler, it stores well on the counter covered in plastic wrap for 1-2 days. You could also store it in an airtight container.
