Raspberry Crumble Bars

12

20 mins + 1 hr cooling

A buttery, golden crumble base and topping sandwiching a jammy layer of raspberry chia jam, lightly sweetened with maple syrup. The wholemeal flour or oats, chia seeds and raspberries give plenty of fibre. Serving them with Greek yoghurt adds protein to keep you full.

Ingredients

Raspberry chia jam

  • 250g raspberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp honey (optional; use maple syrup for vegan)

Crumble

  • 265g wholemeal flour, or oat flour (porridge oats blitzed in a blender until fine)
  • ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 50g unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes (or a vegan block for vegan)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

To serve

  • 900g 0% fat Greek yoghurt (75g per bar), or a plain soya yoghurt for vegan

Needed kitchenware
Instructions

1.

Heat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and line the tin with baking paper.

2.

Put the raspberries and 1 tbsp water in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Cook until soft, mashing with a fork (5 minutes). Stir in the chia seeds and honey, then leave to thicken (10 minutes).

3.

Meanwhile, mix the flour and bicarbonate of soda in a large bowl. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it looks like breadcrumbs (3–4 minutes).

4.

Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla, then add 2 tbsp cold water, plus up to 1 tbsp more if needed. Stir until it forms a clumpy crumble that holds together when pressed.

5.

Press two-thirds of the crumble firmly into the tin to make the base. Bake until lightly golden (10 minutes).

6.

Spread the jam over the base, scatter the remaining crumble on top, and press down gently.

7.

Bake until golden on top (20–25 minutes).

8.

Cool completely in the tin, then chill for 1 hour before cutting into 12 bars, so they hold their shape.

9.

Serve each bar with 75g Greek yoghurt.

Tip

Lower saturated fat: Swap the butter for 3 tbsp rapeseed oil. Other fruit: Try blueberries, blackberries or chopped apple instead of raspberries.
