Air Fryer Blueberry Crumble
Today, I’m thrilled to share a delightful treat straight from my kitchen – the Air Fryer Blueberry Crumble. This recipe is a twist on a classic dessert, perfect for those who love a good crumble without spending too much time in the kitchen.
Why Air Fryer?
Using an air fryer for this recipe not only cuts down on cooking time but also provides a healthier alternative to traditional baking methods. The air fryer uses hot air to cook, reducing the need for excessive oil while still achieving that perfect crumble texture.

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir gently and set aside.
- In another bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cubed butter and use your fingers to mix until it forms a crumbly texture.
- Place the blueberry mixture in an air fryer-safe dish. Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top.
- Set the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbly.
