Ingredients

1 1/3 cups whole-wheat flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons butter -- softened

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

3 tablespoons whole-wheat flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon grated lemon rind

2 cups blueberries -- picked clean

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 13 pan with pan spray.

2.Stir together 1 1/3 cup whole wheat flour, baking powder, soda & salt; set aside. In mixer beat together brown sugar, butter, oil, egg & vanilla until smooth, making sure no lumps of brown sugar remain. Add the dry ingredients & stir until well- blended; the mixture will be firm. Reserve 1/2 cup (packed) for topping.

3.Place remaining dough in pan & cover with a piece of plastic wrap & use it to press dough into the bottom of prepared pan. Remove plastic wrap; bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until puffed & golden.

4.Using fingertips, gradually mix remaining 3 tablespoons flour into reserved 1/2 cup of topping until it gets crumbly. Set aside.

5.Combine sugar, all-purpose flour & zest; set aside. Combine blueberries & lemon juice in saucepan; cook stirring over medium heat until berries begin to exude juice. Add sugar mixture & stir until the filling reaches a simmer & thickens.

6.With a wooden spoon, push down the higher outside edges of the baked crust; pour hot filling over it & spread all the way to the sides of the dish. Spinkle with topping. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until topping is golden.

7.Transfer to a rack & let cool, covered with a kitchen towel to soften crumbs slightly. Cut into 24 bars. Dust with confectioners' sugar & serve.

I just made these today and let me tell you they are soooo good. I was a little worried when I started pushing the dough around the bottom of the pan..I can see why the plastic comes in handy! I will make these again!

These do sound so good, I don't follow recipes to much, but everything here is basically right the way I like it. I'm only going to use spelt flour instead and honey for the sweetener, maybe some spice like cinnamon and nutmeg, thanks so much for sharing. Yum.
