This past week in cooking we decided to try something entirely new, a blueberry crisp! It was an easy process to assemble all of our ingredients so this recipe is great for those in a time crunch. You also have the option to use frozen blueberries as well as fresh and we can attest to the fact that using frozen berries is still quite delicious. This recipe requires minimal effort and consistently will deliver a delicious result, it is definitely one of my favorites we have made in this years cooking class.
