Blueberry Crumble



 As a continuation from my post about barbecues 'n' shit, here's some blueberry crumble that the fam seemed to love. I halved the original recipe, which accounts for the funny sounding measurements. This was enough for four people with no left overs. Adjust according to the amount of people you want to feed. Foo'.

Blueberry Crumble Filling:

2 1/2 cups of blueberries (I used wild blueberries and they were so small and sweet and delicious!)
1 1/2 tbsps lemon juice
1/2 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of flour
1/16th tablespoon of salt (see what I mean about ridiculous measurements?)
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Blueberry Crumble Topping:

1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
4 tbsps butter or margarine softened (if you use margarine you could make it vegan quite easily - remember to always read the ingredients though because sometimes companies put dairy in their margarine anyway for some annoying reason)

1. Sprinkle berries with lemon juice and set aside.
2. Combine sugar and next three ingredients. Add to berries, stirring well.
3. Combine crumble ingredients with a pastry blender or two knives if you don't have a pastry blender. If you're really ghetto you could probably use the back of a spoon. Whatever you do, make sure that it reaches pea-sized consistency. Then toss that shit on top of yo' crumble.
4. Bake at 400F for 35 minutes. Enjoy with a huge scoop of ice-cream or soy-cream.
