Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Filling

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries or raspberry jam

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and allow the butter to soften to room temperature to ensure easy mixing and a smooth dough texture.
  2. Make the Crumble Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until a crumbly dough forms.
  3. Form the Cookies: Spread half of the dough evenly and firmly into a prepared baking pan to create a solid base layer that will crisp up beautifully in the oven.
  4. Add the Raspberry Filling: Evenly spread fresh raspberries or raspberry jam over the dough base to add a tangy, sweet layer.
  5. Top with Crumble and Bake: Crumble the remaining dough with your fingers over the fruit layer to create a textured topping. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, until edges are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  6. Cool and Slice: Allow the cookies to cool completely in the pan to set the filling, then cut into squares or rectangles and serve.

Notes

  • Use cold butter for the crumble topping to achieve a more textured, crisp layer.
  • Do not overmix the dough; mix just until combined to keep cookies tender and crumbly.
  • Choose ripe but firm raspberries to maintain shape and avoid excess moisture that may make cookies soggy.
  • Line your baking pan with parchment paper for easier removal and cleaner edges.
  • Cool cookies completely before slicing to ensure clean cuts and set filling.
