Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Grease the crockpot bowl with butter or cooking spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, toss the blueberries with sugar and lemon juice.
  • Pour the blueberry mixture into the greased crockpot and spread evenly.
  • Sprinkle the yellow cake mix evenly over the blueberries.
  • Melt the unsalted butter and drizzle over the cake mix.
  • Sprinkle ground cinnamon and salt over the top.

Cooking

  • Cover the crockpot and set it on low, cooking for about 3 to 4 hours.
  • For a crustier top, set it on high for the last hour.
  • Check for doneness: The top should be golden brown, the blueberries bubbling, and the cake beneath set.

Serving

  • Scoop out portions directly from the crockpot.
  • Serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
