Blueberry Lemon Bars

Blueberry Lemon Bars



Crust:
  • 2 cups unbleached flour
  • 2 tbs raw sugar
  • 1 stick butter, diced
  • 1 lemon (juiced and zested)
  • 1 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • dash of salt

Filling:
  • 2 cups blueberries, cleaned and de-stemed
  • 2 tbs raw sugar
  • dash of cinnamon

Crumble:
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1/2 unbleached flour
  • 1/2 packed brown sugar

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Grease your pan. I used an 9x11 pan but you can use 9x13 or 8x8... Just depend how thick you want your bars to be.

In mixing bowl mix together crust ingredients. First I mixed the flour, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Then I cut in the butter until is was crumbly. In a small bowl beat the egg and vanilla. Add to bowl and mix until it's damp and crumbly. Press into your greased pan. Bake 10-12 minutes until it browns. Remove from oven.

In mixing bowl combine blueberries, sugar and cinnamon. Dump onto crust and spread evenly.

In another mixing bowl combine flour, butter and brown sugar. Mix until crumbly. Sprinkle over blueberries. Bake an addition 20-25 until brown and bubbly!
