Economical and easy to make bars. Kids love them. You can use any variety of berry that you like; we used raspberries in this recipe.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup shortening
- 1 egg
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 4 cups raspberries
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 teaspoons cornstarch
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease one 13x9 inch pan.
Combine 1 cup of the sugar, the flour, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, shortening, and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of the dough into the prepared pan.
Combine the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and berries. Place mixture over dough in pan. Crumble the remaining dough over the tops of the berries.
Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 minutes or until the top is slightly brown.
