Blueberry Pie Bars

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease an 8×8 baking dish and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and dash of salt. Mix in the butter with a paddle mixer, pastry blender, or 2 forks until crumbly and butter is distributed evenly. Reserve 1/2 cup of the mixture for later.

Press the remaining batter evenly in the glass baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes.

While crust is baking, mix together sour cream, vanilla and egg. Gently fold in the blueberries. When the crust comes out of the oven, pour the blueberry batter over the crust and sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup crust batter over the berry mixture evenly. Return to the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until pie bars are set and crumble over top is slightly browned.

Allow to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing. I found the bars tasted even better the next day if you can wait that long!
