For the blueberry bars
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

Mix ingredients by hand until crumbly.

Press half the batter into a 9x13-inch pan. Spread blueberry pie filling across batter. Crumble remaining dough on top and bake about 40 minutes. Cool and slice into bars.
Variation:
Also tastes great as a muffin. Fill muffin tin with batter, create a large indentation in the middle, fill with pie filling, and cover with remaining batter. Bake for 30 minutes.

Fresh blueberries
I’d like to make these with fresh blueberries for a healthier version, but will that make it more tart? Should I add more (coconut) sugar?? What do you suggest?Replies:
Hi, you can either make your own homemade blueberry jam/filling, and then you can control the amount of sugar in it (here is a recipe https://www.kosher.com/recipe/blueberry-pie-filling-1456). You could use regular blueberries however, it would depend on how tart/sweet your blueberries are and how sweet you like it. I think the blueberry pie filling will give additional moisture than just regular blueberries. -
Replies:
I often make these. They freeze very well, but I suggest to cut them into squares and and either put them into cupcake holders, or layer them and put a piece of baking paper between layers.

Pie Filling
The pie filling looks in the picture not just plain pie filling - but mixed with some white?Replies:
It's just plain blueberry filling. However when it bakes some of the crust and crumble get mixed into it making it look more white. -

So versatile
Besides for being really easy to make (no mixer!), you can use this recipe for so many things. I made a double batch with cherry-pie filling before yom tov and used it warm as a sweet side dish; warm with ice cream for dessert; and at room temperature as a snack/cookie. -
Yum!!!
i made this for shabbos it was delicious and so easy! i made it with homemade pie filling and it was so moist... yum! i will definitely be making this again. -

This recipe is amazing! Fast, easy, delicious!!! Even my finicky eaters loved it. It's a great cake to send to someone for Shabbos. after birth. and while one may not find it fancy enough it is so good it can be sent to kiddush. In the beginning after baking, it is a bit crumbly, but in the fridge it firms up. A winner! Thanks and a good Shabbos to all! (I used a blueberry pie filling, but I am sure you can put any type of fruit filling - if you use fresh fruit, let sit in whatever sweetener you want, and add cornflour as in a pie. Should work fine)
