Ingredients
For the Crust
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp almond extract
For the Blackberries
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1½ Tbsp cornstarch
- 4 cups blackberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Spray a 9”x13” baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line bottom of pan with parchment paper; set pan aside.
- Using a medium bowl, add melted butter, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar and brown sugar; stir until well combined.
- Add eggs and almond extract; stir until well combined.
- Remove 1½ cups of this mixture and set aside. Press remaining mixture into prepared pan.
- Using a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch. Add blackberries and gently stir until well combined. Spread blackberry mixture in an even layer in the baking pan.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture evenly on top of blackberry layer. (Tip: It’s ok to leave some of the crust in larger chunks here!)
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until crumb topping is light golden brown. Let pan cool completely before slicing into bars.
