1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, chilled and cut into pieces
1 egg
1-2 tablespoons lemon zest (about 1 lemon)
2-4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup white sugar
4 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest. Use pastry cutter or your fingers to blend in the butter and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of dough into the prepared pan.
- In another bowl, stir together the sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Gently mix in the blueberries. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust. Crumble remaining dough over the berry layer.
- Bake 35-40 minutes, or until top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
