I made this using a pint of blueberries because I wasn't sure if I would use the other cup of my pint in something else. I put it in a 7X11 pan. Fabulous! So easy to make that I read the recipe 3 times to make sure I wasn't forgetting something. The farmers at my table gave it an A++ so for me, that equals 5 stars! Thanks for sharing.

I decided to try making a low-carb version of this recipe. I only changed the crust/crumb part. I used 2/3 cup of Atkins bake mix, instead of flour (you could use soy flour too), 3/4 cup of Splenda, and 3 tbs of butter. I also added extra blueberries to the top and then some ground, freshly toasted almonds.
