Ingredients for the oat crumble:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• 160 g rolled oats<\/li>\n
• 190 g plain flour<\/li>\n
• 70 g light soft brown sugar<\/li>\n
• 185 g butter, melted<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Ingredients for the<\/span> blueberry filling:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • 250 g blueberries, fresh or frozen<\/li>\n
  • 105 g raspberry jam<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon potato starch<\/li>\n
  • \u00bd teaspoon finely grated lemon zest<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    If using frozen blueberries, thaw them first in a sieve and allow them to drain well.<\/p>\n

    In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar and melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 1 cup (250 ml) of the crumble mixture for the topping. Press the remaining crumble firmly into the base of a 22 \u00d7 22 cm baking tin lined with baking paper.<\/p>\n

    Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C. Bake the base for 13\u201315 minutes, until lightly golden. Leave to cool slightly.<\/p>\n

    Mix the blueberries with the raspberry jam, potato starch and lemon zest. Spread the filling evenly over the pre-baked base. The fruit layer will be fairly thin. Sprinkle the reserved crumble evenly over the top and gently level it. Return the tin to the oven and bake for a further 20\u201325 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely before cutting into squares.<\/p>\n

    They are also delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

    Enjoy!<\/p>\n
