Thyme Blueberry Crisp
1 cup homemade granola recipe
1/2 cup slice almonds
1 quart (4 cups) blueberries
1/16 teaspoon thyme (3 pinches)
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
Vanilla ice cream
Preheat oven to 350*F.
Melt 1 Tablespoon butter. Add 2 Tablespoons brown sugary. Add 1 cup granola. (Reserve remainder of granola for breakfast or another treat later.) Add almonds. Mix together.
Wash and dry blueberries. Add thyme, cinnamon, and 1 Tablespoon brown sugar. Fold together gently.
Place one cup of blueberry mixture into 4 ramekins. Top with ~1/4 cup of the granola mixture. Bake at 350*F for 5-10 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. If you want more caramelization and toasting on the topping, broil on high for 2-3 minutes. Top with 1/2 cup of your favorite vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
I love combining sweet with something contrasting. For example, I like sweet & salty or sweet & savory. So, I love this sweet, cinnamon, thyme dessert. I love the contrast in textures and temperatures of the fresh blueberries, warm, crunchy granola, and cool ice cream. I think this is great dessert to share.
