I don't know why, but I have been craving blueberries lately! So I decided to whip up a batch of my delicious blueberry crumb bars. The bars are cheap and easy to make… and my family loves them! I had the blueberries on hand, but you can easily swap them out for raspberries, cherries and even cranberries. This recipe is very versatile... get creative with the fruit and mix it up. You can even put nuts into the crumb topping! I hope you enjoy these as much as my family does!
Ingredients: Makes 3 dozen bars
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups white sugar, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter
- 2 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9×13 inch pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in eggs and extract. Press two-thirds of the mixture into the prepared pan.
- In a large bowl, combine cornstarch and remaining sugar; add berries and gently toss. Spoon over crust. Sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture.
- Bake in preheated oven for 35-45 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator.
