I love this blueberry crumble because it tastes like the combination of cheesecake and a crumble. The goat cheese adds a slightly cheesy and tart flavor to this dessert. There isn’t so much goat cheese that this crumble becomes a cheesecake, but it has just enough goat cheese to be noticed.

This blueberry crumble is similar to a blueberry pie recipe that I shared last fall. They said that necessity is the mother of invention, and during these days of sheltering in place we have limited access to groceries. We have been relying on grocery delivery from Real Good Stuff Co and Foxtrot.

Our Real Good Stuff Co grocery box came with fresh blueberries. I thought about making muffins, but that would have used most of the flour we had at home. Flour has become a precious resource. It’s hard to find in stores and grocery delivery services don’t seem to have it.

So instead of making blueberry muffins, Charles suggested that I make blueberry crumble. A crumble uses much less flour and we happened to have old fashioned oats at home.

I ended up making a blueberry crumble with a base layer that is very similar to the filling of my blueberry pie recipe. The first layer of the crumble is made with blueberries and goat cheese. I wished that I had basil, but I didn’t. You could definitely add some fresh basil to the blueberry goat cheese layer, it adds a nice fresh flavor.

The top layer is a mixture of butter, sugar, flour, and oats that becomes a crispy crumbly texture once baked. The total preparation time for this recipe is just about 10 minutes and it bakes for 30 minutes. It’s quick and easy!
