Making the Crust and Crumble Topping
- Preheat oven to 350°f/175 C°. Line an 8-inch baking pan with foil and spray with some nonstick cooking spray. Keep it aside.
- Add oats, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, butter and cinnamon powder to a mixing bowl. Mix well to form crumble pieces.

- Evenly distribute cooled blueberry sauce over the crust.
- Add remaining crumble mixture to the top, and press well again.
Baking Bars:
- Bake for 50-55 minutes until edges are set. Crumble topping should appear lightly golden brown at this point.
- Let the crumble cool completely before slicing into bars. Enjoy!
- To slice the bars, lift them out of the pan, and slice with a sharp knife.
- Serve them cold, at room temperature, or warm them up in the microwave.
- Optionally, add a scoop of ice cream on top of each.
NOTES:
- Only use old fashioned oats or large flakes oats. Don’t use quick cook or instant or else the mixture will become too dry and you won't get crumbly texture.
- I am using fresh blueberries for blueberry layer, but you can also use frozen blueberries. You don't need to thaw frozen blueberries.
- Blueberry Oatmeal Bars stay fresh in airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week. You can also refrigerate them for up to 10 days.
