This Crock Pot Blueberry Crisp recipe is an easy dessert packed with blueberries and oats! A simple, super delicious crock pot dessert perfect for summer!
ONE OF MY FAVORITE CROCKPOT DESSERTS FOR SUMMER
Whoa-ho-hooooaaa! I ♥ today’s recipe!!
Hey Hey, buds! THAT is a dessert in the crock pot! This is where we’re headed today – welcome aboard!
Ain’t this dessert the perfect way to start your Monday? I hope so! Totally fits in with the whole Meatless Mondays movement. And you won’t have to trade in your bikini for a two-piece – this Blueberry Crisp swings toward the healthIER side of things.
By now, you probably all know that I am obsessed with cooking in the crock pot, but I had yet to try a dessert using my all time favorite appliance.
Well wait. Not quite entirely true because there’s that Crock Pot Creamy Banana French Toast I made for us a while back and that should most definitely count as dessert. Breakfast-dessert, if you will.
Aaaand, now that I think about it, I’ve also made a cake in the crock pot…
Okay so scratch the above. (Forgive me, it’s Monday)
Honestly, though. It would seem that you can throw just about anything into a crock pot (slow cooker?) and end up with superb results.
HOW TO MAKE THIS EASY CROCK POT DESSERT
Let’s get right down to it. This is something you should make if you like blueberries, sweet options, and a cool (as in temperature) house. Check, Check, and Check.
I have always loved blueberries, especially when they come in a delicious cobbler/crisp form, but cranking up the oven in the middle of a crazy-humid 102-degrees-summer? Ugh! Just ain’t my thing. But what do you do when you end up with 5 large wooden crates of berries? Exactly. We make a Blueberry Crisp.
First you’re going to layer a bunch of blueberries on the bottom of your crock pot. THEN! You’ll sprinkle some sugar on top with a squeeze of lemon juice. Next, you’ll mix up the dry ingredients, layer them over the blueberries and tah-dahm! Fin. Finito. Terminado. Kraj.
PS. There’s oats in there. It’s healthy.
PSS. There’s some butter and light brown sugar in there, too. It’s healthy for the soul.
Find a minute, or couple of hours, and make this! Impress them all at your next gathering with your version of a slow cooker dessert. It will be our little secret!
ENJOY!

hello can i use frozen blueberries ? also I am new to using slow cooker and if i had cook these for 6 hours, what setting will I need to use ? thank you
Hi!
The frozen blueberries will release a lot of water. If possible, defrost the blueberries in a colander before continuing with the recipe.
Now this is the way to do a crisp. Gorgeous!
I bought so many blueberries this weekend coz there was a great deal at my local Jewlosco. I cant wait to use some of them in this blueberry crisp recipe!
Give me a bowl of this blueberry crisp and a scoop of vanilla ice cream and I’m in! Probably going back for seconds too!
I cannot wait to make this – it looks absolutely amazing!
And this totally passes as healthy breakfast food in my book, too.
I love blueberry desserts! This one looks amazing!
Gorgeous! Just when I think, “I’m tired of the same stuff in my slow cooker,” I see this amazing recipe. It looks fabulous. I’ll need to give it a go! Nice!
Oh my gosh! This crisp! I have so many blueberries from when we went picking! Definitely going to make this!
Yes please! I love that this is made in the slow cooker!
This is fantastic! I have been all over my slow cooker recently but never think to make desserts in it! So happening!
