Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and cut until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, mixing lightly until the dough comes together.
Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle and transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim excess dough and crimp edges.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line the crust with parchment and fill with weights. Bake for 15 minutes, remove weights, and bake for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
In a saucepan, combine 3 cups blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla, and salt. Cook over medium heat until thickened.
Remove from heat, gently stir in remaining blueberries, and pour into the crust.
In a bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over filling.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until topping is golden and filling is bubbly. Let cool before serving.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Keep the butter cold for a flaky crust and topping. Chill the filled dessert before slicing for neat pieces.
