These bars can be changed by changing the berries - you can use blackberries, raspberries, or strawberries. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups butter, divided |
2/3 cup powdered sugar, plus |
2 tablespoons powdered sugar, divided |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
3 cups flour, divided |
3 pints blueberries |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons water |
1 cup quick-cooking oats, uncooked |
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Beat 1 cup butter, 2/3 cup powdered sugar and vanilla with a mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 1/2 cups flour on low speed until just combined. Press dough firmly onto the bottom of a greased jelly-roll (15x10) pan. Bake at 375º for 20 minutes or until golden. Let cool and set aside.
2. Combine berries, sugar, cornstarch and water in a saucepan. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently; boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Combine oats, remaining flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse brumbs. Set aside.
4. Spread berry mixture over cooled crust. Sprinkle oat mixture over berries.
5. Bake at 375º for 35-40 minutes or until berry mixture bubbles and top is golden.
6. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Sprinkle with remaining powdered sugar. Cut into bars.
