Ingredients
- 1 1/2 /2 cups flour
- 1/2 /2 cup sugar
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 /2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
STRAWBERRIES:
- 2 cups strawberries, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 /4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a 8x8 inch pan or line with parchment paper.
- FOR THE CRUST:
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter with a fork until mixture is crumbly. Mix in the egg and vanilla. *Note: If you're using a food processor you can just add everything to the food processor and pulse until crumbly. Then add in the egg and vanilla and process until combined.
- Press half of the mixture into the prepared pan. Reserve the other half for later.
- FOR THE Strawberries: Toss strawberries with lemon juice and vanilla extract. Sprinkle with the sugar and cornstarch. Toss to coat.
- Spoon strawberries over the bottom crust discarding the liquid at the bottom of the strawberries. Sprinkle reserved dough on top of strawberries.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes or until topping is lightly browned. Cool completely and cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator but I like to serve closer to room temperature.
