This Single Serve Blueberry Crisp recipe is a mini fruit crisp recipe that is baked up in a ramekin (in the oven OR an air fryer) and is the perfect individual serving for one. I love that you can use fresh or frozen blueberries and the rest of the ingredients are staples that you likely already have on hand.

🥘Ingredients
For the Crisp Topping
- Melted Unsalted Butter - This helps bind the oat topping together. You can also use salted butter and just omit the salt.
- Brown Sugar - When measuring brown sugar, make sure you pack it into the measuring cup. I typically use light brown sugar for this recipe but dark brown sugar works too.
- Classic Oats - Also known as Rolled Oats or Old Fashioned Oats. These add that classic crunch to the crisp topping.
- All Purpose Flour - You'll want to use the 'spoon and level' method when measuring flour to avoid over measuring. If you want to make this recipe gluten free, you can use a 1:1 Gluten Free Flour Blend.
Blueberry Filling
- Blueberries - You can use frozen or fresh blueberries in this recipe. Blueberries can vary in size, which will impact the baking time.
- All Purpose Flour and White Sugar - A little bit of flour and sugar helps sweeten the blueberry filling and helps the juices thicken.

💭Recipe Tips
- Leftovers and Storage - Leftover blueberry crisp can be stored in the fridge, covered, for up to 5 days or at room temperature for 2 days.
- Use 'Spoon and Level' Method When Measuring Flour - When measuring flour, make sure to use the 'spoon and level' method. This is where you spoon the flour into the measuring cup and then level off the top. Instead of dipping the measuring cup directly into the flour bin which can lead to over measuring.
