Ingredient Notes
Frozen Wild Blueberries: I love frozen wild blueberries for this single serving blueberry crisp recipe because I think they have the most flavor. They also make a delicious Blueberry Compote!
Cornstarch: To thicken the juices that the berries release.
Rolled Oats: For the crumble topping. I like old fashioned rolled oats best, but you can also use quick oats.
Maple Syrup: To add a little sweetness without using refined sugar.
Nut Butter: You can use any nut butter you like- peanut butter, almond butter or cashew butter will all work.
Variations and Substitutions
Don't have frozen blueberries? A berry blend will work here, too! But don't use strawberries. They are too big.
Instead of cornstarch, you can use flour if you don't need this healthy Single Serving Blueberry Crisp to be gluten free.

I can’t believe there aren’t any reviews on this recipe. It was perfect. I ate it as breakfast! I have been looking for a way to increase my intake of blueberries. Given the climate where I live, I generally rely on frozen berries which in my experience often taste better than the ones trucked here all the way from California. If you usually rely on pancakes, a muffin (or doughnut!) in the morning this is an unprocessed, nutritious gluten free swap. Next time I am going to replace the cornstarch which the healthier, non-gmo arrowroot powder and I’m going to try to reduce the maple syrup in the crumble part. Best part: It is so easy and truly fast to throw together. Looking forward to quickly making this again when folks around me are snacking on cookies (now I’ll actually be able to resist).
