Ingredients (serves 12):
For the crust:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
For the filling:
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and softened butter until a crumbly dough forms. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3. Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
4. In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the blueberries burst, about 5-7 minutes.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and salt. Slowly pour the blueberry mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
6. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden brown.
7. Let the bars cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.
