DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 180c. Line an 8-inch pan with foil or spray with cooking spray.
Crust and Crumble Topping
In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter and add the sugars and whisk to combine. Add flour and stir to combine. Mixture will be very dry and sandy with some larger, well-formed crumble pieces.
Set a generous 3/4 cup crumble mixture aside, then transfer remaining mixture to prepared pan, and using a spatula or your fingers, pack the mixture to create an even flat crust; set aside.
Filling
In a medium bowl, add the egg, yogurt, sugar, vanilla, and whisk to combine. Then add the flour and whisk to combine again. Evenly pour filling over the crust; set aside.
Blueberry Layer
In a separate mixing bowl, add all filling ingredients and toss to combine. Evenly distribute blueberry mixture over the filling.
Evenly sprinkle with the reserved 3/4 cup crust mixture.
Bake for about 60 minutes, or until the crumble topping golden. Leave to fully cool, and then enjoy!
