Method
Preheat and prep
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy release.
Make the crumble dough
- Whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt, then cut in the cold unsalted butter until coarse crumbs form.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture just comes together into a soft dough.
Assemble the cookies
- Press two-thirds of the dough into an even layer on the prepared baking sheet, then spread the raspberry jam evenly over the top.
- Crumble the remaining dough over the jam in loose clumps, leaving some jam visible for a jammy look.
Bake, cool, and finish
- Bake for 25–28 minutes, until the crumble is golden at the edges.
- Cool completely, then dust with powdered sugar and cut into squares for clean bars.
Notes
Pro tip: Keep the butter cold (and work quickly) so the dough stays sandy and bakes into a crisp, buttery crumble. Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate up to 5 days; freeze baked cookies up to 2 months. For a nut-free, no-swap option, use the same jam layer—just ensure the raspberry jam is thick so it doesn’t seep too much while baking.
