APPLE-RASPBERRY CRUMB BARS



Apple-Raspberry Crumb Bars image

Craving both cookies and pie? A classic crumb bar is just what you need! It's got a tender, sweet, cookie base; real fruit filling; and toothsome, oaty crumbs on top. It's more portable than pie and more satisfying than a cookie. What to do when your favorite fruit is out of season? Make your way to your supermarket's frozen fruit aisle. Since frozen fruit has been picked at peak ripeness, it's reliably sweet and delicious and often a better value than fresh.

Time 2h45m

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 small apples, peeled, cored and chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 cups frozen raspberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup packed light-brown or dark-brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch square baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. In a medium bowl, beat the butter and the brown sugar with an electric mixture on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg. Spread about two-thirds of the batter evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan with an offset spatula. Bake the bottom crust until it is golden brown, 24 to 26 minutes. Mix the remaining batter with the oats and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine the apples, raspberries and sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is bubbling and the fruit has broken down, 5 to 6 minutes. In a small bowl, mix about 3 tablespoons of the fruit mixture with the cornstarch until smooth. Add the cornstarch mixture to the fruit and simmer for another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the jam from the heat and let cool slightly.
  • Top the bottom crust with the fruit and spread it out evenly. Top the fruit with the oat crumb mixture, squeezing it to make some larger clumps. Bake until the top is golden brown, 28 to 32 minutes. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool completely. Using the parchment, lift out the entire bar mixture and place it on a cutting board. Cut into squares.

APPLE CRUMBLE BARS



Apple Crumble Bars image

Dried apples make these fruity bars easy to enjoy any time of year-or any time of day. They're as delicious for breakfast as they are topped with ice cream for dessert. I make these a lot for bake sales, too.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield 16 squares

Number Of Ingredients 12

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for greasing
1 cup white whole-wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats
2/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch fine sea salt
Filling:
1/2 cup apple butter
4 ounces dried apples
4 ounces dried cherries, golden raisins or other dried fruit
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the base and streusel topping: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom of an 8-inch-square baking pan.
  • Put the flour, oats, sugars, baking soda and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse 6 times, about 3 seconds per pulse, until some of the oatmeal is finely chopped and some still large or whole. Drizzle in the melted butter, toss with a fork and then pulse until the mixture comes together, about 8 times.
  • Press two-thirds of the oat mixture into the prepared pan. Squeeze spoonfuls of the remaining mixture in your palm to make chunks - some larger, some smaller - and place in a small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate both the base and the chunks for 30 minutes.
  • For the filling: Put the apple butter, dried fruit, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons water in the cleaned bowl of the food processor and pulse to a chunky paste.
  • Spread the filling over the chilled base. Scatter the streusel topping over the filling, leaving some of the filling showing through. Bake until the streusel is toasty and crisp, about 30 minutes. Cool completely on a rack, about 2 hours, before slicing into 16 squares.

LEMON RASPBERRY CRUMB BARS



Lemon Raspberry Crumb Bars image

These not-too-sweet bars, with an in-your-face lemon flavor, are a quick dessert to make anytime. The bars have the very slightest hint at a crumb topping, which adds a nice bit of texture, in my opinion-but feel free to skip that part entirely, and simply use the whole mixture for the bottom crust instead. They taste great at room temp, but are even better cold! Store in the refrigerator.

Time 1h20m

  • Mix together 1 1/2 cups flour, powdered sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl until combined. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Measure out 1/2 cup of the crumb mixture and set aside to use for the topping. Press remaining crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  • While crust bakes, prepare filling: Mix together white sugar, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons flour, baking powder, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl until well combined.
  • Remove crust from oven and scatter raspberries evenly over top. Pour filling evenly over the raspberries, then sprinkle reserved 1/2 cup crumb mixture randomly over top.
  • Place pan back into the oven and bake until bars are set, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow bars to cool completely in the pan, 30 to 45 minutes. Use the parchment overhang to remove from the pan and cut into 9 bars.
