15 Minute Air Fryer Blueberry Crisp for 2
Makes two 1 cup servings
Crisp Topping
1/3 cup Cup4Cup multipurpose gluten-free flour ( original blend)
1/3 cup gluten-free old fashioned oats
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (Can’t eat nuts? You can substitute for oats or fine coconut instead)
1 teaspoon sweet rice flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
Blueberry Filling
1 1/2 cups blueberries, fresh
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees.
Whisk together the crisp topping ingredients except for the butter in a medium sized bowl. Add the butter and mix with a fork until the mixture clumps together. Set aside
Combine the blueberries with the rest of the filling ingredients in a bowl. Then, divide it equally into 2 one- cup size ramekins or other oven safe dishes. Cover with the crisp topping. Bake for 7 minutes and check the amount of browning. If the crisp a deep brown shade all over, cover with foil** and continue cooking the remainder of the 15 minutes or until blueberries are thickened and bubbling out the sides a bit. Let the crisp cool for 30 minutes and then top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
**The foil doesn’t stay on top without being tacked down, I put a spoon over the top of each one to hold it in place.
