Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp baking soda

  2. In a large bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. Stir in melted butter and vanilla extract until crumbly.
  4. Press half of the oat mixture firmly into the pan to form the base.
  5. In another bowl, toss blueberries with sugar and cornstarch. Spread over the oat base.
  6. Crumble the remaining oat mixture on top, gently pressing down.
