Peanut Butter & Jelly Crumb Bars
- 2-1/2 cups Flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Softened
- 1/3 cups Creamy Peanut Butter
- 3/4 cups Sugar
- 1 whole Large Egg
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1-1/4 cup Pomegranate Jelly
- 2 teaspoons Water
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F and coat a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Beat butter, peanut butter and sugar in a large mixer bowl on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture; beat just until incorporated. The dough will be crumbly. Reserve 1 cup of the dough mixture and set it aside.
- Press remaining dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake 10 minutes, until crust is light golden and center is set. Cool on a rack 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk jelly to loosen it. Use a small spatula to spread it in an even layer over crust.
- Toss reserved dough with 2 teaspoons water until crumbs form. Scatter the crumbs over the jelly layer. Bake for 15 minutes more, or until topping is golden.
- Remove from oven to cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into squares with a sharp knife. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
