Time 1h5m

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2 3/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups fresh blueberries or 3 cups frozen blueberries
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugar.
  • Add egg, flour, vanilla and salt and mix well.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, in a saucepan, bring the blueberries, sugar and cornstarch to a boil.
  • Stir and cook for 2 minutes or until thick.
  • Roll 2/3 of the dough into a 14 x 10 rectangle.
  • Place in greased 13 x 9 baking dish.
  • Top with filling.
  • Roll out remaining dough to 1/4" thick.
  • Cut into 1/2" wide strips and make a lattice crust over filling.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 30- 35 minutes or until top is golden brown.
  • Cool on wire rack.
  • Cut into bars.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries give the best flavor and texture to the bars. If you can't find fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries will also work, but they may not be as flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the bars from spreading too much.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the lattice: A sharp knife will help you to make clean cuts in the dough.
  • Don't overbake the bars: Overbaking the bars will make them dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.

Conclusion:

Blueberry lattice bars are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a simple dough that is filled with a sweet blueberry filling. The bars are then topped with a lattice crust that gives them a beautiful and professional look. Whether you are serving them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, blueberry lattice bars are sure to be a hit.
