Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 cup Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1/2 cup Cold Unsalted Butter, cubed
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cups Ripe Mangoes, diced
  • 1 cup Fresh or Frozen Raspberries
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, old-fashioned rolled oats, and salt for the crumb mixture. Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter and cut it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Press about two-thirds of the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Par-bake this crust for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, gently combine the diced ripe mangoes and raspberries. Sprinkle in the granulated sugar, cornstarch, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract, and toss until the fruit is evenly coated.
  5. Once the crust is lightly baked, spread the raspberry mango filling evenly over the warm crust. Sprinkle the remaining one-third of the crumb mixture over the fruit filling.
  6. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 35-45 minutes, or until the crumb topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly and set in the center.
  7. Let the bars cool in the pan on a wire rack at room temperature for at least 2-3 hours, then transfer to the refrigerator and chill for another 2-3 hours or overnight.
  8. Once fully chilled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and slice them into squares or rectangles. Serve as is, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.

Nutrition

Keywords: Choose ripe mangoes for the best flavor, and don't rush the cooling process to ensure clean cuts. Parchment paper makes lifting the bars out of the pan easy, and you can adjust the sweetness based on the ripeness of your fruit.
