  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg and vanilla until combine.
  • Add egg mixture and cold butter cubes to flour mixture and using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut mixture together until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Press 1/2 of the mixture evenly into prepared baking dish.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cornstarch, stir in lemon juice.
  • Add blueberries then toss mixture to evenly coat, pour and spread coated blueberries evenly over crust in baking dish.
  • Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over berry layer.
  • Bake in preheated oven about 38 - 42 minutes until top is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool for about 20 - 30 minutes before cutting into squares.
  • Store cooled bars in an airtight container in refrigerator (rewarm in microwave for 10 - 15 seconds if desired).
