Sea's Notes:

I adopted this recipe on JAP and made a few changes. I made two versions...one is a blueberry bar using almond extract and a dash of cinnamon in the sugar topping.
The second is a triple berry bar using vanilla extract.

I dusted powdered sugar over these for presentation.

These are very moist and more like a dessert than a bar cookie. Delicious!

 

Directions

1
Blueberries/raspberries should be fresh or frozen, not thawed.
2
May use a mixture of the two.
3
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
4
Spray an 8" square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
5
In a small bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
6
Whisk in buttermilk and vanilla.
7
Spread evenly into prepared pan.
8
Distribute berries evenly over batter.
9
In a small bowl, combine sugar, constarch, and lemon peel.
10
Sprinkle evenly over berries and bake in upper third of oven 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and beginning to pull away form the edges of pan.
11
Cool completely before cutting.
