A pinch of salt

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a large oven-safe dish with butter or spray.
- Prepare the Blueberry Filling: In a baking dish or bowl, combine the blueberries, vanilla extract, oat flour, and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine.

- Assemble the Crumble: Evenly distribute the topping over the blueberry filling, covering it thoroughly.
- Bake: Place the crumble in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving to let the filling set for easier serving.
