Microwave Blueberry Crumble

Our blueberries are starting to ripen!  YIPPEE!!!  And that means it's time to break out all those wonderful blueberry recipes I love!  This one is fantastic, simple and great for a nightly sweet treat!  I found this recipe last year, and the only tweak I made is to use Splenda instead of sugar.  Here's my version:


3 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
3 Tablespoons Splenda or other sweetner 
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/3 cup old fashioned oats
1/3 cup Splenda
3 Tablespoons flour (I used whole wheat)
2 Tablespoons chopped almonds
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
dash of nutmeg
3 Tablespoons margarine


Mix blueberries, Splenda and cornstarch in greased glass pie pan.  Cover and microwave for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring at least once.  In a small bowl, combine the oats, Spelnda, flour, almonds, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Cut in the margarine, making a nice crumbly mixture.  Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the blueberry mixture.  Microwave, uncovered, for 2 to 3 minutes, until butter is melted.
