Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust and Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (gluten-free flour can be used as a substitute)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar (brown sugar can offer a richer flavor)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened (full-fat for best results)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (can substitute with lemon zest)
  • ½ cup sour cream (can be replaced with plain yogurt or buttermilk)

For the Blueberry Layer:

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (can swap with other berries)

For the Crumble Topping:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats (optional)
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into the pan and bake for 10–12 minutes until golden.

3. Beat cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth. Add egg and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in sour cream until just combined.

4. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the crust. Drop blueberries on top.

5. In a bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle on top of the blueberries.

6. Bake for 35–40 minutes until edges are golden and center is set. Cool on a wire rack.

7. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into bars.

Notes

For best results, chill ingredients before mixing and use cold butter for a flakier texture.
