Raspberry Bars make a delicious treat for breakfast, brunch, dessert or an afternoon snack! These raspberry bars are on a shortbread crust with an almond crumble topping.
Talk about deliciousness! These raspberry bars are seriously so amazing. And easy. Like really easy. I love to make the shortbread crust one evening and then just allow it to cool overnight and then the next morning add the raspberry jam and the almond crumble topping. That way, I am ready to serve warm raspberry bars for breakfast or brunch! Of course, it is just as delicious cool!
I topped these raspberry bars with an almond crumble since I think raspberries and almonds are absolutely perfect together. Of course, pecans or walnuts would also be scrumptious or you could just omit the nuts completely if you prefer.
Here’s my raspberry bars recipe. I think you will absolutely love them!
