Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven and prepare the pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute.
  3. Incorporate the butter: Add cold, cubed unsalted butter to the mixture and work it in until coarse crumbs form.
  4. Form the crust: Press about two-thirds of the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  5. Prepare the raspberry filling: In a separate bowl, gently combine raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
  6. Assemble the bars: Spoon the raspberry filling evenly over the pressed crust.
  7. Top with remaining crumbs: Crumble the remaining crumb mixture over the raspberry filling.
  8. Bake to perfection: Bake for 40-50 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Cool completely: Let cool on a wire rack for 2-3 hours.
  10. Cut and serve: Use the parchment paper to lift out and slice into squares.
