Blueberry Pie Bars
- FOR THE CRUST:
- 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Or Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
- 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1/2 cups Cold Butter
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 1 cup Sweetened, Condensed Milk
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon Vanilla Bean Paste Or Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup All-purpose Or Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
- 1/4 cups Melted Butter
- 3 cups Blueberries
- Preheat the oven to 375F and grease a 9x13" baking pan.
- In a food processor fitted with the dough blade, stir the first five ingredients together (sugar, baking powder, flour, lemon juice, salt). Cut the butter into 8-10 pieces, then use the processor to work the butter into the flour until the butter is in pea-sized chunks.
- Savvy Tip: If you don't have a food processor, you can also use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into the flour.
- Evenly press the dough into the prepared pan, and bake at 375F for 20 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown. Then remove from the oven.
- In the meantime, blend the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, 1 cup flour, and melted butter until smooth. Fold in the blueberries.
- Pour the blueberries over the crust, spreading the filling evenly over the top of the crust. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top begins to firm up. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
