Blueberry Crumble for One

Fruit cobblers and berry crisps are one of my most favorite desserts–especially when topped with some ice cream!

A couple of weeks ago I saw a post on the Heather Eats Almond Butter blog about blueberry crumble.  Heather tried out a recipe for the crumble that she found on Yoga is Yummy.

I’m a sucker for a simple list of ingredients, so I was instantly intrigued.   I wanted to scale the recipe back a bit to a single serving that I could fit in a mini ramekin, so I only used the following:

  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1 tbsp Hodgson Mill oat bran
  • 1 tsp Trader Joe’s Crunchy Salted Almond Butter
  • 1/2 tsp Honey
  • 1 drop vanilla extract

First, I sprayed a mini ramekin with cooking spray then dumped in the blueberries.  I added the remaining ingredients to a separate bowl:

Next, I mixed up the crumble and plopped it onto the blueberries little by little to ensure even distribution. 

Popped this baby into a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes, and VOILA:

Y-U-M:

This was yummy!  Couple points though — if you are looking for a sweet tasting crumble, you will need to make some modifications as there is no sweetener in the recipe above.  A couple of options for sweetening things up include sprinkling a packet of Truvia over the blueberries and/or using a sweeter peanut butter (as we all know I still love and adore JIF peanut butter to this day).  Of course another option would be to add a big scoop of ice cream to the top….
