Raspberry Almond Bars are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that will satisfy your sweet tooth. These bars are made with a buttery almond crust, a layer of raspberry jam, and a crumbly almond topping. This recipe yields 12 servings, making it perfect for sharing with friends and family.

To make these bars, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and almond flour. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the almond extract and mix until combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a crumbly dough forms. Press two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the remaining dough and sliced almonds over the top of the jam.
Bake the bars for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
These Raspberry Almond Bars are the perfect combination of sweet and nutty. The almond crust and topping add a delicious crunch, while the raspberry jam provides a burst of fruity flavor. These bars are great for any occasion and are sure to impress your guests.
