FAQ’s
Which is better fresh or frozen blueberries?
Either fresh or frozen blueberries work great! If you have the choice fresh can add that extra level of depth you get from freshly picked fruit, but honestly they are both good. And of course you can make this over the winter months if you those frozen little blue beauties in the freezer!
Can I add other fruit to this Blueberry Crisp recipe?
This is so simple and perfect on its own but you can totally add some more fruity twists, blueberries play well with a host of other fruits!
Go for fruits that are already soft and so don’t need to affect the cooking time. Peaches would be great as they work so well with blueberries and are silky soft already.
Apples are also lovely, but I’d recommend slicing apples thinly so they cook along with the blueberries.
Plums, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries and cherries would also rock!
Can you freeze Blueberry Crisp?
This fruit crisp can be frozen. Freezing before cooking it usually retains the best texture. Just prepare as directedthen cover tightly with plastic wrap. To bake blueberry crisp from frozen, preheat oven to 375F then bake about 50-60 minutes or until hot and bubbling.
