Here's everything you need for these sweet and refreshing pineapple crumble bars. This recipe makes 16 bars.
Ingredients to Gather
Crust/Topping
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cups rolled oats (pref. quick cooking)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
Filling
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 oz pineapple juice
1 oz lemon juice
3 large eggs
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup finely diced pineapple chunks
Directions to Follow
Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly grease.
Prepare the crust/topping mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, baking soda and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together sugar and butter until light and creamy. Beat in flour mixture until everything is well-combined and dough is sandy. Set aside 1 1/4 cups of crumb mixture.
Pour remaining crumb mixture into prepared pan and press down into an even layer.
Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, pineapple juice, lemon juice, eggs and salt until well-combined. Stir in pineapple chunks.
Pour filling mixture over the oatmeal base, making sure that pineapple chunks are evenly distributed over the bars.
Crumble remaining oatmeal mixture over the top of the pineapple filling.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until bars are set in the center.
After this, wait until the bars are completely cooled, and then put them in the refrigerator to chill. Once they're cold, slice with a knife and serve.
