A delightful fusion of nostalgic flavors and modern convenience, these Blueberry Pie Bars feature a buttery crust topped with tart and sweet blueberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish to prepare for your delicious creation.
  2. In a bowl, mix the fresh blueberries with 1/4 cup of sugar and lemon juice. Set aside to let the flavors meld together.
  3. In another bowl, combine the remaining sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, and melted butter. Mix until the texture becomes crumbly—this will form your crust and topping.
  4. Press half of the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. This will be the sturdy base to hold your blueberry goodness.
  5. Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust. This is where the magic happens as the juicy blueberries nestle into their buttery home.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture generously on top of the blueberries. This layer will create a delightful crunchy finish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbling slightly. Your kitchen will smell divine during this time!
  8. Allow the bars to cool in the baking dish before cutting them into squares. This step lets the filling set a bit, making for cleaner cuts and easier serving.

Notes

Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat. Store leftovers in an airtight container.
