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!

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup sugar, 3 cups flour, and baking powder.
- Mix in salt and lemon zest. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the butter and egg. Dough will be crumbly.

- Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust.
