Strawberry Crumble Bars

  5.0 – 3 reviews  • Bar Cookie Recipes

I’m fortunate to be in a community with a sizable Hispanic population and what appears to be a Mexican eatery or taqueria on every corner. This is my preferred form of the michelada recipe, which they all have different variations of. Maggi®Jugo seasoning adds an umami flavor and can be found in the international section of your supermarket or Hispanic markets. If necessary, soy sauce can be used in place. If you’d like, increase the hot sauce.

Wonderful way to combine a traditional crumble with a bar. I cannot wait share these with my co workers tomorrow. Super simple and the strawberries become compote if you mix them first, then let them sit while you make the crust. Love it!
