Categories     Bars

Time 3h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
3/4 cup (240g) raspberry preserves*
12-16 fresh raspberries*
1/2 cup (40g) old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup (70g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup (31g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
optional (but encouraged!): vanilla icing for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F (149°C). Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang on all sides. Set aside.
  • Stir the melted butter, granulated sugar, vanilla, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the flour and stir until everything is combined. Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the crust from the oven, and turn the oven up to 350°F (177°C).
  • Spread preserves over warm crust. Dot the preserves with raspberries on top.
  • Whisk the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour together in a medium bowl. Cut in the chilled butter with a pastry blender or two forks (or even with your hands) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the filling with streusel and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the streusel is golden brown. The raspberry filling should be bubbling on the edges.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight). Lift the foil or parchment out of the pan using the overhang on the sides and cut into bars. I usually cut them into 16 smaller bars, but you can cut them into 12 larger bars. Drizzle the bars with vanilla icing, if using. These raspberry bars can be enjoyed at room temperature or cold. I personally like them cold.

RASPBERRY WALNUT SHORTBREAD BARS



Raspberry Walnut Shortbread Bars image

This is a great bar cookie. I have been making this since I was in high school (can you say that 70's show) and it always comes out great. I know my mom gave me the recipe but I have no idea where it came from. To be honest it probably came from the newspaper she was always clipping recipes. You are gonna love these & the nice thing is you can change the flavor by changing the jam, we also use apricot.
