Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
  • 1 cup rhubarb, diced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Prepare the filling by mixing strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract to form a crumbly dough.
  • Press half of the dough mixture into the prepared pan to form the base.
  • Spread the fruit filling evenly over the crust, then sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture on top.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
  • Allow bars to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sugar based on how sweet or tart your fruit is.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a richer experience.
