If you're craving Blueberry Cobbler but want something a little healthier, give this Mini Blueberry Crisp Recipe a try! This recipe is vegan friendly, naturally gluten-free, quick to make, and uses simple ingredients that I bet you already have on hand. These single serve treats taste just like blueberry cobbler but they are much better for you!
Mini Blueberry Crisp Ingredients
- Blueberries: We used frozen wild blueberries, but you may also use fresh.
- Butter: To keep this recipe vegan - we used melted vegan butter in the blueberry crisp topping. If you are not dairy-free or vegan, feel free to use regular butter. Coconut oil will also work, but you may want to add a pinch of salt to the crumble because coconut oil is naturally sweeter than butter.
- Sugar: To reduce the added sugar in our individual blueberry crumbles, we used purecane sugar substitute. If you don't have purecane, feel free to use regular sugar. Thank you to purecane for sponsoring this recipe!
- Oats: Oats are naturally gluten-free, but if you are gluten-intolerant, you might want to get a pack of Certified Gluten-Free Oats to ensure there was no cross contamination in the manufacturing process. We used old fashioned rolled oats in our blueberry crisps but quick oats will also work.
- Add Ins: Cinnamon, Vanilla, or Maple Syrup make a delicious addition to the oatmeal crumble that is used on top of the blueberry crisp.
How to Serve Individual Blueberry Crumble
These mini blueberry crumbles are delicious on their own - especially when they are warm! To kick them up a notch, we recommend serving your blueberry crisp with plant-based or regular dairy yogurt, oat milk ice cream (or regular ice cream), or even drizzling it with a little nut butter.
How to Make Mini Blueberry Crisp
Step 1: Preheat your oven. Grease 4 ramekins with non stick spray and then add about half a cup of fresh or frozen blueberries to each ramekin.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, mix the oats, purecane or sugar, and melted vegan butter together. If you are adding vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup - add those ingredients now and mix until an oatmeal crumble forms.
Step 3: Spoon the crumble over the top of the blueberries. Bake the ramekins in the oven for about 30 minutes or until the oats are golden and the blueberries are bubbling. Enjoy (carefully) warm.
