Berry lovers, get ready! Today I’m sharing some easy and delicious MIXED BERRY CRUMBLE BARS that are bursting with four kinds of berries! All that berry goodness is sandwiched between a delicious crumble crust and topping.
There is something in the air when spring arrives, and I’m not just talking pollen! It is one of those invigorating times when nature makes things new, and we seem to follow her lead. While I like to do the whole spring cleaning thing, what I really like to do is switch up my recipes.
While I tend to bake with a lot of chocolate and cinnamon in the fall and winter, when spring comes I break out the fruit. From citrus to berries, there are so many great ingredients to work with. These berry crumble bars are packed with four different berries!
Reasons To Make Mixed Berry Crumble Bars
- You have lots of fresh berries on hand, and want to put them to good use.
- The flavor combo of a buttery crust and bursting berries make your mouth water.
- There is a summer BBQ, potluck or picnic coming up and you want a solid dessert everyone will rave about!
Berry Crumble Bars
When my friends at Bounty asked what I was making for spring, berries immediately came to mind. My family loves berries, especially my youngest. I love berries as well, though I’m not quite as fond of the mess they can make. Thankfully Bounty has that mess part covered. Thank you to Bounty for sponsoring this recipe for berry crumble bars.
One of the things that I love about these bars is that you really use any combo or ratio of berries that you like, or have on hand. While I used a variety of berries for this recipe, you can easily use just one berry or a mix of blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and/or strawberries. As long as you have four cups of berries, in any combo, you’re in good shape.
Cutting your berries into bite sized pieces will help your bars cook evenly.
This recipe is so simple and delicious. It is truly a fantastic summer dessert. While these bars are great served at room temperature, for a treat you can serve them warm, topped with a scoop of cool and creamy vanilla ice cream.
