How To Make Blackberry Crumb Bars

INGREDIENTS –

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup cold butter, grated
• 1 egg, beaten
• 4 cups fresh blackberries, cut in half
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 4 teaspoons corn starch

INSTRUCTIONS –

Prep – Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and spray your baking dish with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper to keep things from sticking.

Make the Crumble – The crumble mixture has just six simple ingredients and comes together in a few minutes. Start by whisking together the sugar, flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.

Add the butter and toss it to coat in the dry mixture.

Then mix in the egg to form a crumbly dough.

Take half of the crumble mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of the pan to form the crust.

Make The Filling – To make the delicious filling, you’ll toss your fresh blackberries with the sugar and cornstarch. Spread the blackberry mixture in an even layer into the baking pan over the dough in the pan.

Add The Crumb Topping – Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture over the top.

Cook – Bake the blackberry crumble bars for about 25-55 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

The blackberries turn into an almost jam-like layer, and the buttery crumble topping gets crisp and delicious. Once they’re done baking, allow them to cool before cutting them into squares.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container on the counter or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
