3 Press the crust into the prepared pan & bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow it to cool while prepping the rest of the recipe.
Filling
4 Using the same bowl, beat the cream cheese & sugar until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure there are no lumps of cream cheese. Beat in the egg, scrape down the sides, beat again.
5 Beat in the sour cream, vanilla & lemon juice. Fold in the blueberries.
Crumble Topping
6 In a small bowl, mix all of the ingredients together until the mixture resembles wet sand.
