Strawberry Crumb Bars
I love the crunchy crumb topping, the sweet fruit, and the buttery crust. These bars are so fun and perfect for this time of year!
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 50 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 3 cups Flour
- 1 cup Cold butter, cut into pieces
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 4 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 4 tsp Corn starch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375. Grease (or line with foil) a 9 x 13 pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, baking powder, salt, and flour. Cut in the butter using two knives or a pastry blender, until pieces are no bigger than pea sized. Stir in the egg to form a crumbly dough. Pat half of the dough in an even layer in the prepared pan. In a medium bowl, toss the strawberries with the 1/2 cup sugar and corn starch, then spread the strawberry mixture on top of the dough in the pan. Crumble the remaining dough evenly over the strawberry layer. Bake 45-50 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool before slicing and serving.
