These sweet blackberry crumble bars feature a buttery base and topping with a juicy blackberry filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 4 cups fresh blackberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press half of the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- In a separate bowl, gently toss the blackberries with the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice.
- Pour the blackberry mixture over the crust in the pan.
- Crumble the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the blackberry filling.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen blackberries. If using frozen, do not thaw them before using.
- You can substitute other berries like raspberries or blueberries.
- For best results, let the bars cool completely before cutting. This helps them hold their shape.
