Two ratings from our house: hubs LOVED 'em and even had a rare second helping of dessert after dinner! When I asked him why he thought they were so good he said he didn't know how to articulate it, he just knows what he likes, and he gives these five stars. I, on the other hand, rate them three stars - I thought they were okay, but not outstanding. I made half again as much filling, and am glad I did. I can't imagine these would be blueberry-y enough with a mere two cups for a 9x13 pan with all that crumb mixture! I loved the filling, and it was perfectly sweet and hinted with lemon, but the crumb mixture fell short in my view. Too oaty tasting, with little flavor - kind of flat. I think it definitely needed some vanilla and salt to enhance the flavor, if not a little cinnamon as well. It certainly is easy to put together, and I love the fact that it uses "real" blueberries rather than jam or pie filling. But I think the recipe needs to be tinkered with.
