Ingredients:
- 2 cups blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon tapioca flour (or substitute with cornstarch)
For the topping:
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons cubed cold vegan butter
- 2 tablespoons vegan buttermilk* (see note on making vegan buttermilk)
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease a small baking dish (approximately 5×5 inches).
- In a bowl, mix the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar, and tapioca flour until well combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- For the topping, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in another bowl. Use a fork, pastry cutter, or your hands to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the vegan buttermilk, stirring just until a rough dough forms (you might not need all the buttermilk).
- Flatten the dough slightly and arrange it over the blueberries in the dish as desired.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean.
*To make vegan buttermilk, add a small dash of vinegar or lemon juice to the 2 tablespoons of plant milk.
