This blueberry crisp recipe has just a handful of every day ingredients and comes together in minutes! You’re going to be so surprised by the secret ingredient, too! This post is sponsored by Mirum, but all opinions are my own.
I am a berry fanatic.
Growing up, there was a walking trail by our house that was lined with raspberry bushes. Every summer, we would grab a bucket and go pick berries.
Y’all, I’d come home bloodied and bruised every time.
Picking berries is tough. Those thorns are vicious. It’s totally worth it though.
I’m really excited to share this blueberry crisp recipe that I am sharing with you in partnership with Hellman’s!
I was so excited when we moved in to our current home and I discovered that hidden along the side of the house were a couple of raspberry bushes tucked in with the rest of the landscaping. Takes me right back to my childhood!
Anyway, I’m not here with raspberries today, although those do happen to be my all time favorite berry.
Today, I am here with blueberries.
I hear blueberries are a super food, so obviously eating them in dessert is a super idea.

Sam’s Club has so many things to stock up on and for this recipe I grabbed some blueberries and Hellman’s mayonnaise.
I know that you just wrinkled your forehead up in confusion.
What has Hellman’s got to do with blueberry crisp?
Y’all, I went ahead and mixed the oats and the sugar in the topping with some mayo.
I know, you’re concerned. Don’t be.
This is phenomenal! You’re going to love this recipe!
I, admittedly, am a mayonnaise lover. I slather it on all my sandwiches, stir it into my bacon cheeseburger meatloaf, and use it for my fry sauce recipe.
I am the person that buys the big two pack Sam’s Club containers of Hellman’s. It’s a great value and I don’t have to worry about running out!
That said, please don’t think I’ve lose my mind.
This blueberry crisp does not taste like it’s full of mayonnaise! Promise!
It just works to hold everything together and provide some richness to the dish. You can skip the butter – this is a dairy free recipe!
I doctored this recipe up a bit – it is time to Mix it Up after all, right? I added some extra berries, and sweetened them up with honey and cinnamon. I didn’t change the topping at all, because it was already perfect!
I’m really excited about the flavors of honey and cinnamon in this blueberry crisp.
Have you tried the Scan and Go app? I’m excited to try Club Pickup too. You can order online and they do the shopping for you! I love how easy it is to shop at Sam’s Club these days!

I’m super intrigued by this recipe. I’ve heard of mayonnaise cake but never thought of using it in a crisp. Mind blown!
Cinnamon Zone says
A very interesting recipe. I can see the ingredients that have been used mixing and blending very well together in terms of taste, I guess the mayo will help bind the topping and a good mayonnaise doesn’t overpower other flavors.
Jillian says
Wow, I would’ve never thought to use mayo in a crisp, but it totally makes sense since mayo has a pretty mild flavor and it’s a pure fat like butter. It’s a great substitute for when you don’t have butter or margarine! I definitely need to try this out to see how it tastes and compares to traditional crisps.

It really does make for a rich topping! And it’s a great alternative if you need a dairy free dessert. 🙂

I have heard tales of mayo working in some different dishes. It really can add the richness and binding that you’re talking about here. I’d definitely give it a go!
I know exactly what you are talking about with a love for berry picking. My grandmother had a rasberry patch in here backyard and it was always a blast to go back there and pick what we could find. Soooo delicious, have you tried wild blueberries? They’re seriously the best!
