Blueberry Apple Crisp

Apple crisp usually reminds me of the Fall, but this recipe is perfect for summer when there are plenty of fresh blueberries around. It is so so yummy.

The recipe suggested not using apples that are too tart. I used Fuji apples and they worked well. This recipe is from Baking Bites

Blueberry Apple Crisp

4 medium-large apples
1 cup blueberries
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking (or old-fashioned) oats
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled

Preheat oven to 350F.
Peel apples and remove their cores. Halve the apples, then cut each half into 6-8 thin slices.
Arrange apple slices in an even layer over the bottom of an 8×8-inch square baking dish. Add blueberries on top of the apples.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, oats, baking powder and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk together sugars, egg and melted butter (make sure butter has cooled!) until smooth. Add in flour mixture and stir to incorporate. Using a spoon, drop batter in small clumps over the top of the apple slices. Try to create a roughly even, if rustic, layer. It does not need to be smooth and it is ok if there are gaps.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until apple slices are tender when pierced with a fork, berries are bubbling and topping is golden brown.
Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

Serves 6-8
