Best 6 Almond And Berry Bars Recipes

ALMOND AND BERRY BARS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°. Grease bottom and sides of rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches, with shortening. Beat butter and brown sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, or mix with spoon. Stir in almond extract, eggs and almond paste. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Spread in pan. Sprinkle with raspberries and blueberries.
• Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until golden brown and bars slightly pull away from edges of pan. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.

BERRY ALMOND BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x9 inch square baking pan. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Remove from heat and add 1 cup vanilla chips, but do not stir.
• In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Gradually mix in the sugar. Stir together the softened chips and butter, and blend into the egg mixture along with the almond extract. Combine the flour and salt; stir into the batter until just mixed. Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. In a small saucepan, over low heat, warm the jam to make it more liquid. Spread the jam over the warm crust. Stir the remaining cup of vanilla chips into the batter, then drop the rest of the batter by teaspoonfuls over the jam. Sprinkle with almonds.
• Bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack before cutting into bars.

BERRY CRUMB BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease one 13x9-inch pan.
• Combine 1 cup of the sugar, the flour, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, shortening, and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of the dough into the prepared pan.
• Combine the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and berries. Place mixture over dough in pan. Crumble the remaining dough over the tops of the berries.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is slightly browned, about 45 minutes.

ALMOND FRUIT BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder.
• In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars on high speed until light and fluffy; beat in egg yolk. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in flour mixture. Stir in almonds.
• In a small bowl, whisk jam to loosen. (Stirring the jam with a fork or a whisk will enable it to spread smoothly over the dough.) Gently press half of dough into bottom of prepared dish. With the back of a spoon, gently spread jam over dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border so the jam doesn't stick to the sides of the pan. Sprinkle remaining dough over top all the way to the edges; press gently to form top layer.
• Bake until top is golden, 25 to 30 minutes; cool completely in dish. Cut into bars with a serrated knife.

• Stir in the granola.
• Press about 2/3 of the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan.
• In a medium bowl, mix the blueberries and sugar; spoon over dough to within ½ inch of the edges.
• Crumble the remaining 1/3 of dough on top of the fruit.
• Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and set. (High altitude - bake for 30-35 minutes.)
• Cool completely, about 30 minutes, then cut into 16 bars.

BLUEBERRY-ALMOND BARS
