Step-by-Step Instructions for Raspberry Streusel Bars
  1. Defrost Raspberries by placing frozen raspberries in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
  2. Prepare Filling by combining thawed raspberries with granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir gently and set aside.
  3. Preheat Oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  4. Make Streusel by combining oats, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, melted butter, and salt. Mix until clumpy, reserving ½ cup for topping.
  5. Bake Base by pressing the streusel mixture into the pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
  6. Layer Filling by pouring raspberry mixture over the warm base and topping with reserved streusel.
  7. Finish Baking by returning the pan to the oven for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden brown.
  8. Cool and Chill by letting the bars cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
