Author: 
Yields: 24 squares
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 4 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Spray a 13x9-inch baking pan with baking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl (or in a food processor), combine brown sugar, flour and baking powder. Cut-in butter and egg using a pastry cutter, or pulsing using the food processor, until a crumbly dough forms.
  3. Press half the dough into prepared pan to form the crust. Reserve the remaining dough for the topping.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar and cornstarch. Add blueberries and vanilla and gently mix until combined. Sprinkle blueberry mixture over the crust in a even layer. Then sprinkle remaining dough over the blueberry mixture to form a crumbly topping.
  5. Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
