Easy Summer Blueberry Crisp

Here is a super easy dessert that's just as good as pie, but 5 times faster. Pour the berries in a shallow gratin dish (one with a lot of surface area for the crunchy topping), combine the butter, sugar and flour, sprinkle on the berries and bake. Crunchy sweet topping and syrupy berries. Add cream or ice cream. Why not?
