Raspberry Crumble Bars made with Fresh Milled Flour
These quick and easy Raspberry Crumble Bars made with fresh milled flour are so delicious, and fresh! Originally I wanted to serve these cold as a Bar dessert, but when I pulled them out of the oven, there was no holding my family back! We dug in right away, and Oh My Goodness, they were so good! So, if you want to attempt to make these as a cold bar recipe, I wish you the best of luck to hold everyone off. So, when served warm, it is more of a Raspberry Crisp or Raspberry Crumble, I guess sort of like a pie, but not! lol

Spray a 8x8 baking pan with oil and set aside.
To a large bowl add flour, baking powder, salt, oats, and brown sugar then stir to combine.
Pour melted butter over the crumble mixture, and stir until combined. It should be crumbly at this point.
Pour half this crumble mixture into the prepared baking dish, and press it into place.
Save the other half for the top of the crumble.
In a different bowl, add raspberries, starch, lemon juice, and sugar. Mix this together until combined.
Pour all the Raspberry mixture on top of the first layer of the crumble, then spread it out evenly.
Then top the Raspberry mixture with the final half of the crumble topping.
Bake for 35 minutes.
This can be enjoyed warm as a Raspberry Crisp, or let it cool to room temperature to cut and serve into Raspberry bars.
