Berry Crumble Bars

I can hear you already going what on earth is that?????



Well.....If words like “Bars” make you think, “Ew, weird, clicking away now." Don’t–click away!


Avoiding things that sound weird will keep you from enjoying things that taste amazing.



So onto the recipe...

 First things first

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
3 cups flour
1 cup butter
1 whole egg
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
4 tsp cornstarch
4 cups fresh berries ( your choice)

Second things steps...

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a 9x13 pan well.

 In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, flour, and baking powder. Add salt and lemon zest. Use a pastry cutter or fork to combine the butter and egg -- you want the dough to be crumbly like coarse bread crumbs

 Pat half of the dough into prepared pan, set the rest aside.

In another bowl, combine lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Gently mix in the berries.

 Sprinkle berry mixture over the crust and try to spread it out as evenly as possible.

 Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture over the berry layer.

Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting squares.

*Use any combination of blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries that you wish, just keep the strawberries on the minimal side because they contain a lot of water and can make the crumble soggy if you use too many.


Now simple disclosure I will on occasion borrow pictures from other sites if I did not take one and I apologize...The above picture came from www.jumboempanadas.blogspot
