RASPBERRY BARS


These yummy baked raspberry bars are the perfect accompaniment to any picnic. They travel really well and are also very filling.

The base and topping are just a crumble type mixture, which is so easy to make, especially if you have a food processor. The fresh raspberries and lemon zest complement the sweet crumble perfectly, with the pine nuts giving it some nutty crunchiness.

 TOP TIPS FOR MAKING RASPBERRY, LEMON AND PINE NUT BARS 


Try using other soft fruits such as blueberries and blackberries.

Substitute the pine nuts for other types of nuts - chopped hazelnuts or walnuts would work well.

Use a processor to pulse the flour, oats and butter together to save you rubbing it in by hand.

The raspberry bars freeze really well so make a double batch and freeze half for another day.
