Blueberry Bomb Cobbler

CAN YOU SAY LEMON+BLUEBERRY=EXPLOSION...simply amazing! I made this for a huge family gathering for the first time, and it was a hit! I really love an equal combination of crumble to berry, so I made sure to make plenty of the crunchy crust. I can't tell you how exciting it is to see blueberry oozing out of the side when you plate this, it is just magical. The zest really takes this to the next level if you are a lemon freak like me:) It is such an easy crumble/cobbler to make, and the best part is you can even make it the night before and just pop it in the oven the next day!
Ingredients:
6-8 cups blueberries (I buy 2 containers from Costco)
4 lemons, juiced
2-4 of those lemons above, depending on how much you LOVE lemon, zested
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons corn starch
1 teaspoon salt

Crumble:
2 sticks unsalted cold butter, cubed
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon
2 cups oatmeal

Optional: Vanilla or Pecan Ice Cream just takes it to double BOMB in 60 seconds.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix all the ingredients besides crust into a large bowl. Pour into a large casserole dish, 9x13 or larger.

In a food processor, pulse the crumble ingredients until they are well incorporated. Pour on top of blueberries, and with your hands, pat down until well covered. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes, and then broil on high for about 5 minutes. MAKE SURE TO WATCH WHILE ON BROIL. I stand right next to the stove and make sure it does not burn to get the golden brown crust that we all love!

ENJOY!
