How to cook deliciously - Raspberry Crumble Bars

1. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Use a pastry blender or two forks to blend the shortening into dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then, stir in the eggs and the almond extract.

2. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish, then press two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the pan, creating an even layer across the bottom and into the corners. Editor's Tip: If the dough is sticky and hard to handle, use a piece of greased waxed paper to press it into the pan.

3. Stage

Pour the cornstarch, remaining 1/2 cup sugar and raspberries into a large bowl, and use a spoon to toss them together. Spoon the berry filling evenly over the dough in the pan. Sprinkle the remaining dough mixture over the filling. (If the dough is sticky, pinch it into small pieces and drop them over the top.)

4. Stage

Pop the pan in the oven, and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the crumble topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Place the pan on a wire rack, and let the bars cool completely. Slice into bars.
