Golden And Crisp Blueberry Crumble Bars Recipes

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Combine flour, oats, 1 cup sugar, cinnamon, and baking soda in a large bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve about 2 cups flour-butter mixture. Press remaining mixture into the prepared baking dish to form a crust.
• Bring blueberries, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice to a boil in a saucepan, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened, about 2 minutes. Spread blueberry mixture over crust and sprinkle with reserved oat mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until topping is just browned, about 25 minutes. Cool before cutting and serving.

GOLDEN AND CRISP BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE BARS RECIPE

Steps:

• For the Filling: : Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and tapioca; set aside.
• For the Shortbread: : Grease 9- by 9-inch baking pan with butter. Place flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor and pulse three times to combine. Add cold diced butter and pulse until it is the size of peas. Add milk and pulse just until the mixture comes together; the crumbs should look like wet sand and hold together when you pinch them between your forefinger and thumb. Press dough evenly into bottom of prepared baking pan.
• For the Crumb Topping: : In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add softened butter and, using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until large crumbs form.
• Spread jam evenly over shortbread in baking pan, then pour in prepared fruit mixture and spread in an even layer. Top with crumb mixture. Bake until crumbs are golden and fruit is bubbling, 45 to 55 minutes. Let cool completely then cut into rectangles or, if desired, squares.
