Blueberry Crumb Bars

Summertime means blueberry season, and what better way to enjoy these sweet berries than in a delicious Blueberry Crumb Bar? This recipe is easy to follow and perfect for a summer potluck or picnic. Don’t forget to bring the ice cream and these bars will be the hit of the party!

As my family and my parents were sitting around the table a few weeks ago, we were discussing the easy peach cobbler I made recently. Everyone was naming their favorite fruit flavors for a cobbler, and someone mentioned blueberries…  (Blueberry cobbler is my fave!)

Lucky for me, (and my family) blueberries are finally starting to go on sale.  I sent hubby to the store to grab a few pints of blueberries so I could make these blueberry crumb bars for our Memorial Day get-together.

These bars are amazing! 

I managed to put these 3 bars away so I could get a decent picture when I had a chance.  (They never even made it back to the kitchen once I was done!)

Enjoy!
