How to Make Cherry Crumb Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 6 tablespoons (3 oz) melted unsalted butter, and 1 cup (1.5 oz) rolled oats.
- Reserve 1 cup of this mixture for the crumb topping.
- To the remaining mixture, add 1 large egg.
- Mix well until combined.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- In a separate bowl, prepare your cherry filling (see ingredient list for options).
- Pour the cherry filling over the crust and spread evenly to cover.
- In a medium bowl, combine the reserved 1 cup crumb mixture, 1/4 cup (0.375 oz) rolled oats, 2 tablespoons (1 oz) melted unsalted butter, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional), and 1/4 cup (2 oz) packed light brown sugar.
- Mix well until crumbly.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the cherry filling.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
