Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Pie Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 7x11 glass baking dish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 3/4 cup of this mixture for later.
  3. Press the remaining mixture into the baking dish and bake for about 15 minutes until slightly golden.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, then mix in granulated sugar, sour cream, flour, and a pinch of salt. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
  5. Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and sprinkle the reserved crust on top. Bake for 45-55 minutes until the top is lightly browned and the filling is set.
  6. Let the bars cool for about one hour on a wire rack before slicing into squares or bars.
