Equipment
- 9x13 inch baking pan
- Colander
- Mixing Bowls
Ingredients
Raspberry Filling
- 24 ounces Frozen raspberries two 12-ounce bags
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar more depending on tartness of your berries
- 2 tablespoons Flour
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 each Lemon juice juice of one lemon
Crumble Layer
- 3 cups Rolled oats use old fashioned rolled oats
- 3 cups Flour
- 2 cups Brown sugar loosely packed
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1.5 cups Butter melted, preferably salted
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preparation and Baking
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place raspberries in a large colander. Run warm water over them for a minute, and then let the liquid drain out for about an hour until softened and thoroughly drained. Mix raspberries with sugar, flour, cornstarch, and lemon juice.
- Mix the oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, butter, and salt together into a crumble-like mixture. Press two thirds of the crumble into the bottom of a 9x13 pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Arrange the raspberry layer on top of the baked bottom layer. Sprinkle with remaining crumble. Bake for another 25-30 minutes.
- Remove from oven. They will need a little time to set up into “bar” formation, so chill them for a few hours to get them really solid.
Notes
Thawing and draining the raspberries is important for getting the bars to firm up. You can also use fresh raspberries, but they tend to be more expensive and juicier. Chilling is recommended for better texture and taste.
