Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour a 13x9-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Prepare the Crust: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 0.5 cup brown sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon. Cut in 1 cup cold, cubed butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Bake the Crust: Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown, about 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

04

Step

Make the Filling: In a blender, combine granulated sugar, eggs, 0.5 cup flour, and salt. Blend until completely smooth. Pour into a large bowl. Gently fold in the diced rhubarb, sliced strawberries, and blueberries until evenly distributed. Spread the fruit mixture evenly over the baked crust. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Prepare the Topping: In a medium bowl, combine 0.5 cup flour, 0.5 cup brown sugar, oats, melted butter, and 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon. Mix until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit filling. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Bake the Bars: Return the baking dish to the oven and bake until the topping is lightly browned and the filling is set, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting into bars. (50 minutes)

For easier cleanup, line the baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang to easily lift the bars out after baking.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking by reducing or increasing the sugar in the filling.
The bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
For a richer flavor, use browned butter in the crumble topping.

    I found that chilling the crust for 30 minutes before baking helped to prevent it from shrinking.
