I love easy go-to desserts that you can mix up and adapt depending on what is in season. One of our favorites is a traditional crumble made with a homemade crumble mix and served with vanilla bean ice cream. Make certain to check out our list of easy blueberry recipes as well. 

It’s the best way to finish off family meals at the weekend when everyone can sit down together.

This blueberry crumble with fresh blueberries and a splash of lemon can be served hot or cold.

There is nothing better than taking out the baking dish from the oven with the juices from the blueberries bubbling over the sides! Then, letting it cool just a bit before you cut into it and place into your bowl with a scoop of homemade ice cream.

Must Have Resources:

When making this Blueberry Crumble with Fresh Blueberries at home, you really need to have the following Amazon affiliate tools on hand.

Pie Dish:  Pyrex is one of my go-to brands. I know it and love it.

Measuring Cups: I think my 2 cup measuring cup is my most favorite, but I hope you also have a set of measuring cups that can be packed and/or leveled.

Mixing Bowls:  The linked glass bowl set from Pyrex is the best investment I ever made into my kitchen.  These glass bowls with lids are perfect for mixing and storing.

Ice Cream Scoop: Reminiscent of the original Pampered Chef anti-freeze scoop, this one cut through even the hardest ice cream.

When you hear “crumble” what do you think? I think of England’s Queen and tea. It just seems like such a British dessert to me!  So, I was super happy to have a true Brit to guest post this delicious recipe for me. Cerys even took the time to change all the measurements to US for us. 🙂
