My husband loves blueberries and he didn't even mind that I consider it a Weight Watcher recipe. Ingredients:
4 teaspoons artificial sweetener, i. e. splenda |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon table salt |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
1 cup unsalted butter, softened |
3 tablespoons egg whites |
3 teaspoons cornstarch |
4 cups unsweetened frozen blueberries |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
2. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with Pam for Baking Spray.
3. Stir together the following: 1 cup of the Splenda, the flours, baking powder, salt, cinnamon & nutmeg.
4. Blend in the vanilla, the butter and the egg whites.
5. The dough will be somewhat crumbly.
6. Pat half of the dough into the prepared pan.
7. In a separate bowl, stir together the remaining 1/2 cup of Splenda and the cornstarch.
8. Gently mix in the frozen blueberries.
9. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust.
10. Crumble the remaining dough over the blueberry layer.
11. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is slightly brown.

13. Refrigerate for keeping.
