Description

These Raspberry Crumble Bars are a perfect combination of fruity, buttery goodness thatโ€™s so easy to make and impossible to resist! A sweet, tangy raspberry filling topped with a buttery shortbread crumble โ€“ ideal for any occasion!


Ingredients

For the shortbread:

  • 225g salted butter, softened

  • 120g granulated sugar

  • 320g plain flour

For the filling:

ย 

  • 230g frozen raspberries

  • 150g raspberry jam

  • 60g granulated sugar

  • 3 tbsp cornflour

  • 1/2 tbsp lemon juice


Instructions

  1. Prepare the shortbread: Preheat your oven to 190ยฐC (170ยฐC fan). In a bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until smooth and fluffy. Add the plain flour and mix until the dough forms.

  2. Bake the base: Press the shortbread mixture into the bottom of an 8ร—8โ€ baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the base is lightly golden. Let it cool for around 15 minutes before adding the filling.

  3. Make the raspberry filling: In a separate bowl, combine frozen raspberries, raspberry jam, granulated sugar, cornflour, and lemon juice. Stir until everything is well-mixed.

  4. Assemble and bake: Once the base has cooled, spread the raspberry filling evenly over the shortbread. Return to the oven and bake for another 35 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.

  5. Cool and serve: Let the bars cool in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy these buttery, fruity delights with a cup of tea or coffee!


Notes

  • You can use fresh raspberries instead of frozen if preferred.

  • For an extra crunch, sprinkle some oats on top of the filling before baking.
