I am always looking for the perfect treat to go with my morning coffee as well as my afternoon tea. If I'm going to bake something, it might as well do double duty. This bar is the perfect rustic balance of something not too tart or not to sweet. I love the oatmeal in here too. It makes it healthy right?
What's nice is the creamy filling and how easily it all comes together. I whipped these bars up in the morning and was sipping my Cinnamon-Apple Spice tea with them in the afternoon.
If you are having a bake sale, these are a great item, as they are very sturdy. You'll sell out! And since this uses dried blueberries, you can make them all year long.

What a fabulous bar recipe! I love lemon and blueberry together!
Once you bake these and set them on the table, spring has sprung! A great way to get rid of the winter doldrums. I am having a difficult time finding dried blueberries, though.
Just put this recipe on my docket. FYI, for Easter dinner I made your Baked Ham with Rum and Coke Glaze – NO WORDS CAN DESCRIBE its goodness. I’ve prepared many hams in my life and this recipe is THE ONE I will use forever. Yes, it’s that good!!! My husband’s eyes rolled in his head at the first bite. Also made your Sweet Potato bake – again, another heavenly delight. Thank you so much for sharing these culinary masterpieces.
So glad to hear it!
Check in the bulk food section if you haven’t all ready.
These are so gorgeous. What a lovely spring treat!
I have an allergy free oat bar that I makt that is so versatile and I’ve never thought to go the lemon/blueberry route! I’ll have to try this soon! And I get my dried blueberries at Trader Joes. They are some of the only ones I know that are peanut/tree nut safe.
Looks delicious…can I use fresh blueberries??
Hmmm, never tried it. Might be too mushy and the measurement would be off. For fresh bluberries, use this recipe http://noblepig.com/2008/09/21/feeding-the-addiction.aspx.
Can lemon curd be used in the recipe?
I’ve never tried it but you could give it a shot.
I substituted nonfat plain yogurt for the sour cream and it turned out great! Plus you save about 270 calories by not using the sour cream.
Ooh, these look really good! I need to make these
Can i use frozen blueberries??
Just make sure they are completely thawed and dry.
