Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 6

Ingredients

1 1/4 ounces (2 1/2 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 pints blueberries (about 4 cups)
1 cup crème fraîche

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Step 2

    In a bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and corn syrup and stir until blended. Stir in the oats, mixing well.

    Step 3

    To form the crisps, drop the oats mixture by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 1/2 inches apart. Bake, rotating the baking sheets 180 degrees at the midway point, until golden brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets. Then, using a metal spatula, transfer the crisps to a large flat plate to cool.

  2. To serve:

    Step 4

    Divide the blueberries and crème fraîche among individual bowls and place 2 oat crisps alongside or on top of each serving.
