Cranberry Crumb Bars November 04, 2009 Katie @ goodLife {eats}

easy | 20 servings | prep: 20 minutes | cook: 1 hour * I used Blue Diamond Natural Oven Roasted Almonds Vanilla Bean. Just toss them in a food processor until finely ground to make almond meal. I think these would freeze great! First, I'd chill according to recipe, cut into serving size pieces. Place them on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet to flash freeze, and then transfer to a labeled zip top freezer bag. Ingredients: •1 cup white sugar •1 tsp baking powder •1/4 tsp salt •2 1/2 cups all purpose flour •1/2 cup almond meal* •1 cup cold butter (2 sticks) •1 egg •1/4 tsp cinnamon •juice of 1/2 of an orange •4 cups fresh cranberries •2/3 cup white sugar •1 tsp vanilla •1 Tbs cornstarch	PRINT RECIPE print 3x5 print 4x6 print full page VIEW COMMENTS (2) ADD A COMMENT ADD A PERSONAL NOTE FLAG RECIPE
Directions: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9×13 inch pan. In a medium bowl, mix together 1 cup sugar, flour, almond flour, salt and baking powder. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the butter and egg. The dough will be crumbly. Alternatively, you can pulse the dry ingredients in a food processor with the butter until pebbly, and then mix in the egg until it all comes together. Pat half of the dough into the buttered pan. In another bowl, stir together the sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and orange juice. Mix in the cranberries. Sprinkle the cranberry mixture evenly over the dough in the pan. Add 1/4 tsp cinnamon to the remaining dough, then crumble dough over the berries. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until top is a light golden brown. Cool completely and chill in the refrigerator before cutting into squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Original author/site: Katie @ http://www.goodlifeeats.com
