These blueberry pie bars are one of my favorites! They taste just like blueberry pie, but without having out make a pie crust. They are 10/10!

Ingredients

Bottom Layer and Crumble Topping

  • 1/2 Cup Butter
  • 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 1/4 Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 Cup Rolled Oats
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla

Cream Filling

  • 4 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1/2 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Medium Egg
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla

Blueberry Layer

  • 2 Cups Frozen Blueberries
  • 1/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Corn Starch

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉ and spray a baking dish with cooking spray.

Make The Crust and Crumble Topping

  • In a large bowl melt the butter in the microwave until melted. Add the sugars and mix until combined.
  • Add in the flour oats and vanilla and mix until everything is fully combined. The mixture will be dry with crumble pieces.
  • Set 1 cup of the crust mixture aside.
  • Move the remaining mixture to the baking dish and using your hands or a spatula hard pack the mixture to create a smooth and flat bottom layer.
  • Place in the oven for 10 minutes.

Make the Filling

  • In a medium bowl combine the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, sugar egg and vanilla. Whisk until combined.
  • Evenly pour the filling over the top of the crust layer and smooth it out.

Make the Blueberry Layer

  • Mix 1 tablespoon of corn starch with 1/4 cup of water. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat add the frozen blueberries, sugar, and vanilla.
  • Give a stir and pour in the water and corn starch mixture. Bring to a boil while stirring constantly. After about a minute the blueberry mixture will have thickened up. Remove from heat.
  • Evenly pour the blueberry mixture over the top of the filling mixture.
  • Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of the crust mixture.

Bake the Bars

  • Bake for about 40 minutes or until the top of the crumble is set and lightly golden brown.
  • Let cool 1-2 hours before serving. If you cut in the bars before they are cool you will have very messy bars that will more than likely fall apart.
