I’ve always been a fan of ‘crisps’ when it comes to dessert. They’re much lighter than pie (which is also super delicious!) and crumble (which typically has more butter, sugar and flour in it).

Crisps are typically made with oats as the base, but I also added some chopped pecans for crunch, healthy fats, and flavor!

However, the real star of the show here is the blueberries. They’re downright DREAMY.

I used frozen Seal the Seasons New Jersey Blueberries, which are in my opinion – exceptionally sweet and juicy! 

Can you use fresh berries in this healthy blueberry crisp?

Yes, you could also use fresh berries if you have an abundance of them, however, I like the frozen berries just as much. As the frozen berries cook, they defrost, creating a delicious blueberry sauce that you may not get with fresher berries.
