For the oats layer: mix the dry ingredients and mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Then add these together. It should be a slightly sticky and crumbly mix.

In a separate bowl, add the lemon juice to the blueberries and then mix in the cornstarch.

Use about 2/3 of the oat mix for the bottom layer. Distribute equally in your baking dish and press down.

Add the blueberries on the bottom layer and then crumble the rest of the oat mix on top. Press lightly.

Step 8

Crumble some pecan nuts and add a few whole nuts to top it off. Press in lightly.

Step 9

Bake for 50 minutes covered with silver foil and bake for another 10 minutes without foil.
