Ingredients
Before diving into the preparation, let’s gather all the necessary ingredients for this delicious dessert:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/2 cup chopped rhubarb
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Raspberry Rhubarb Almond Bars:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, all-purpose flour, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir until you have a smooth mixture.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom of your greased baking dish to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. Gently fold the raspberries and chopped rhubarb together in a separate bowl.
- Once the crust is done, remove it from the oven and evenly distribute the raspberry and rhubarb mixture over the top.
- Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the fruits to add a crunchy texture.
- Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the almonds are golden brown.
