FRUIT CRUMB BARS



Fruit Crumb Bars image

These are your basic oatmeal-on-the-top-and-bottom-with-fruit-in-the-middle dessert bars. I usually make them for a potluck or a get-together (along with something else), because they make quite a few, they're good if someone doesn't want chocolate, and most everyone likes them. Also, you can choose whatever flavor of pie filling you want for the middle. They also freeze REALLY well and taste really good cold (not that I would know from personal experience ;) ).

Time 50m

Yield 40 bars

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups butter, melted
1 (21 ounce) can pie filling, any flavor of choice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, oats, brown sugar, and baking soda.
  • Stir in melted butter until combined. Set 2 cups of the mixture aside for topping.
  • Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of an ungreased, foil-lined 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12 minutes.
  • Cut large pieces of fruit in pie filling so they are smaller. Carefully spread pie filling on top of baked crust.
  • Sprinkle the reserved topping mixture over the pie filling, and gently pat the mixture into the filling.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes more (I usually only do 21 minutes) or until the top is golden.
  • Cool in pan on a wire rack. When cool, cut into bars.

BERRY CRUMBLE BARS

I like to think of these fruit and oat bars as a grownup version of one of my favorite lunchbox snacks. I'll bake these through spring and summer and bring them to picnics and cookouts every chance I get. The oat crumble comes together super quickly and the fruit layer works with just about any fresh or frozen berries that are on hand.

Time 2h15m

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick baking spray
2 1/2 cups fresh or frozen berries (I like a mix of blueberries and quartered strawberries)
1 tablespoon granulated or brown sugar
1 lemon, zested, then 1/2 the lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch fine salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon fine salt
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides of the pan (for easy removal after baking).
  • For the fruit: In a medium bowl, toss together the berries, sugar, lemon zest and juice, vanilla and salt. Set aside.
  • For the crumble: In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar and salt. Add the butter and use your hands to work the butter into the oat mixture until crumbly and combined.
  • Press a little more than half of the crumble into your prepared pan. Pour the sugared berries over the pressed crust and top with the remaining crumble.
  • Bake the bars for 25 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking until the center is bubbly and the topping is golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely, lift out of the pan and slice into 16 bars.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe fruit: This will ensure that your crumble bars have the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the dough to hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the crumble bars until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the bars are cooked through.
  • Let the crumble bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Fruity crumble bars are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of fruits to choose from, you can create a crumble bar that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give fruity crumble bars a try!
