Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 5 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 lemon (juiced)
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar + 3 TBSP (divided)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon (heaping)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp fine salt
  • 7 Tablespoon unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 3/4 cup sliced almonds

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, lemon juice, almond extract, 3 TBSP sugar, and cinnamon until blueberries are coated. Transfer to an 8x8 baking dish.
  • In a separate bowl, add flour, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, cubed butter, and a pinch of cinnamon. Use a pie blender, fork, or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mix. Once small - medium pea-sized pebbles form, stir in almond slices. Spread evenly on top of the blueberries.
  • Bake for 35-42 minutes until the top is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbly. If it's bubbling and only slightly brown (around 30-35 minutes) you can also just turn on the broiler for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Watch carefully so it doesn't burn if you use the broiler! Let sit for at least 20 minutes to let the juices settle.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream and/or a garnish of fresh mint or basil.
