RHUBARB CRUMB BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Butter and flour parchment and pan, tapping out excess flour.
• Make streusel: Whisk together butter, brown sugar, and salt. Add flour and mix with a fork until large crumbs form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make cake: In a medium bowl, combine rhubarb, brown sugar, and 1/4 cup flour. In another medium bowl, whisk 3/4 cup flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy; beat in eggs, one at a time. With mixer on low, beat in vanilla, then flour mixture. Spread batter in prepared pan. Sprinkle with rhubarb and top with streusel.
• Bake cake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely in pan. Using paper overhang, lift cake from pan. Cut into 16 bars.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter.

• Press 2 cups of the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing down lightly. Set remaining mixture aside.
• Combine strawberries and rhubarb in a bowl. Drizzle with lemon juice and toss to combine.

STRAWBERRY RHUBARB CRUMB BARS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 x 8-inch square pan with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, blend the base ingredients together with your fingers until the butter is no longer visible and the mixture is loose and crumbly. Transfer about 3/4 of the mixture to the prepared pan. Use a measuring cup to press the mixture into an even layer on the bottom of the pan. In another medium bowl, stir the rhubarb, strawberry, lemon juice, cornstarch and sugar together. Pour into the pan. Crumble the remaining base mixture on top of the fruit. Bake in the oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven. Let cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing into 9 pieces. Tip: Lining the pan with parchment paper helps with removing the bars after baking.
