STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB BARS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the powdered sugar and salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or fork. The mixture should resemble coarse crumbs and clump together when squeezed lightly in your hand. (This can also be done in a food processor.) Scoop 2 cups of the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish and press evenly into the pan with your fingers. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 25 minutes, or until golden brown on the edges and light golden in the middle.
- While the crust is baking, add 1/3 cup of the granulated sugar to the remaining butter-flour mixture and toss to combine. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup granulated sugar and the ground cloves. Stir in 3 to 4 tablespoons flour (adding more flour will make the filling firmer when cool), the orange zest, and vanilla. Add the rhubarb and strawberries, mixing well to coat the fruit. Pour the mixture onto the hot crust, spreading the filling to the edges of the dish. Sprinkle the reserved sugar mixture over the fruit. Bake for 50 minutes or until bubbling around the edges and light brown on top.
- Let the bars cool to room temperature before cutting and serving.
- Make Ahead
- The bars can be stored, covered, at room temperature for up to 5 days.
