About Berry crumble bar

Berry Crumble Bars are a dessert originating from Western cuisine, often featured in American and European baking traditions. They typically consist of a buttery crumble mixture layered with berry compote or fresh berries, then baked to create a sweet, fruity treat. Depending on the recipe, they may contain oats, flour, butter, sugar, and various types of berries, such as blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries. Nutritionally, they are a source of carbohydrates and may provide vitamins such as vitamin C and fiber from the berries. However, they can also be high in added sugars and saturated fats, depending on preparation. Homemade options can be tailored for healthier alternatives, like using whole-grain flour and less sugar, making these bars potentially rich in antioxidants and dietary fiber if fruits are the focus of the recipe.
