These bars are just as good as (if not better than) blueberry pie and they only take minutes to make!Blueberry Crumb Bars
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups flour
1 cup shortening
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
-----
4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 /2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons cornstarch
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch pan. In medium size bowl, stir together 1 cup sugar, 3 cups flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the shortening and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of the dough into the prepared pan.
In another bowl stir together the sugar and cornstarch. Gently mix in the blueberries. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust. Crumble remaining dough over the berry layer. Bake in a preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

This sounds great...I'm going to make this. I do have one question...by shortening do you mean Crisco or butter? Thanks.
Yummy! I want to try these!

OhMgosh-I'm a blueberry freak! I can't wait to try these!!! Thanks for the recipe! You are so bad for my diet!
Oh yum....I am going to be trying these.
Speaking as someone who ate these, I can vouch for how good they are! The worst part about them is having to stop eating them! I could easily have eaten the whole pan!

They look delicious! I'll bet they're good with ice cream....
Can hardly wait to make these! Sounds wonderful! Quilters DO make some of the best treats!!! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
I just printed it out...sounds yummy. We used to have a farm nearby where we could pick blueberries, but it seems to have closed now......SAD about that. *sigh*
yum yum...blueberry season!
I can attest to these little jobbies. Our square dancing group loved them and two girls took the recipe home with them. Thanks for sharing with me.
Just made these for a picnic supper. Can't wait to taste them.
