Vegan blueberry crumble bars are loaded with berries and topped with a crispy oatmeal crust.
I was actually going to share a popsicle recipe today, but as I type this it is 46 degrees outside, and a popsicle sounds ridiculous right now. A blueberry crumble bar sounds much more appropriate.
I made these vegan blueberry crumble bars over Memorial Day weekend, and my favorite way to eat them was warmed up for breakfast in the morning.
My boys’ favorite way to eat them was not at all, because they refuse to touch blueberries with a ten foot pole. Which is mind-boggling to me, because blueberries are the best! Hopefully they will outgrow that aversion. Until then, more for me!
These vegan blueberry crumble bars are really easy to put together, which is why I usually go for a berry crisp or crumble rather than a pie. A pie involves much more time and work – making, rolling, and chilling the dough – but a crumble or crisp just involves mixing up the topping and baking everything. So easy, and that leaves me more time for other summer activities.

Vegan Blueberry Crumble Bars.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups gluten free oats
- 1/4 cup gluten free flour blend all purpose flour works as well
- 3/4 cups light brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup vegan buttery spread cut into cubes
- 2 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
-
In a large bowl, place the gluten free oats, gluten free flour blend, vegan butter spread, brown sugar, and salt. Use a pastry blender to mix it together. The mixture should resemble large crumbs, and there should be some balls of brown sugar and butter.
-
Place half of the crumble mixture in the bottom of a 9x9 square baking dish. Use your hands to pat it down.
-
Bake the bottom crust for 15 minutes. Remove from oven.
-
Put the blueberries in the pan, and spread evenly over the crust. Top with the remaining crumble mixture.
-
Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes, until the berries are bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
-
Let cool before slicing into bars.
These vegan blueberry crumble bars are:
- simple to make
- delicious warm or cold
- perfect when served with ice cream!

These look beyond amazing- I am stoked to be here where berries are cheap!
PS- congrats on the e-book!! :) Send me some motivation, I die everytime I try and learn indesign!
I’m a pie AND a crumble person! My kids love blueberries, which means I have to compete with them for the berries! I’d love one of these crumble bars for breakfast!
I do love both as well! I just don’t like the work of making pie crust! :)
These would be great in the kids lunch boxes!
Thanks for the scrum recipe :-)
I really hope your boys outgrow the no blueberry phase! In the meantime, however, that just means more for you ;) I was so ready for a popsicle last week, too, but today was just grey and windy and I am ready to snuggle up with a cup of tea!
I know! They will eat a ton of other fruits, but they do not love berries! Maybe someday. :)
Mmmm can you make these for my birthday on Saturday ;)
Happy Birthday, Rebecca! I hope you have a great day!
I will make these today as it’s 56 degrees on the California coast today! Thanks!
One thing I used to do with my son (now 19 and LOVES blueberries!) is I’d bring healthier snacks in the car when I’d pick him up from school (we had a 20 minute drive). He was usually ravenous so he’d eat things or try things he typically would turn his nose up at.
It’s cold here too. It’s June! Shouldn’t it be warming up? Haha! These crumble bars look delicious!
I am totally loving the minimal ingredient list here! Love oats and blueberries this time of year, pinning!
OOf 46 degrees would make me crave something warm and toasty like these blueberry bars, An easy peasy healthful breakfast/treat? I’m all in!
I’ve never met a kid that doesn’t love blueberries! That’s crazy, but also awesome because that means more for you! LOL. I have a huuuuuge weakness for blueberry crumb bars so these are right up my alley!
Oh these bars look so perfect, Kelly! I’m a sucker for anything with a crumble topping, so I absolutely love these!
