Ingredient List

Filling

1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel, if desired
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple in juice, drained, juice reserved for sauce
1 cup fresh blueberries

Cinnamon Crumb Topping

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened

Pineapple Sauce

3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch

Preparation

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix all filling ingredients except pineapple and blueberries with spoon until well blended. Fold in pineapple and blueberries. Spread in ungreased 8-inch square pan.
In small bowl, mix all topping ingredients except butter. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles resemble fine crumbs. Sprinkle over blueberry mixture.
Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, mix brown sugar and cornstarch. Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 2/3 cup; stir into brown sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Boil and stir 1 minute; remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice. Serve over warm dessert.

Tips

If you have time, garnish this home-style dessert with fresh blueberries and small wedges of fresh pineapple.
One cup of frozen blueberries, thawed and well drained, can be substituted for the fresh blueberries.
