These gluten free raspberry cream cheese crumble bars officially have the record in our house for being eaten the fastest!
(*Want to know what came in second and third place for getting eaten so quickly? Check out these Gluten Free Strawberry Bars and this amazing Gluten Free Peach Cobbler recipes!!)
Not only did I have to chase my husband out of the kitchen with a wooden spoon (I can be pretty scary!), but I had to rush in order to get these photos taken before the kids got home from school!
No stress!! My family obviously loves desserts!
If you love fresh raspberries, you MUST give this recipe a try.
I promise, you will fall in love with the flavors, just like my family did.

I bought the ingredients for this dessert at one of my favorite places for bargains, Smart & Final. Did you know Smart & Final has tons of gluten free and organic products? This is the place I go to stock up on my kids’ favorite gluten free pasta too…it is 1/2 the price at Smart & Final!!
Who can pass that up?
I picked up all of the ingredients to make this dessert, and a few extras. Do you like to find new bargains to use in recipes? The only thing I added from my pantry was gluten free flour. Hopefully Smart & Final will add this to their products soon :-). I love so much about this store, even their First Street house brand products.
Did you know that Smart & Final donates back a percentage of each and every First Street sale to their local communities? I love when a company gives back to their community.
And Smart & Final is opening new stores that are even bigger and better all over California. They will have opened over 20 new California stores by this summer. Smart & Final is known for offering great value, and at Smart & Final Extra! these stores will be no exception! They never charge a membership fee!

Thank you so much Kelly 🙂
Smart & Final is so HANDY – there’s one right down the street from me, and they have some great deals. Looks like you were able to pick up all the essentials!
I love the combo of raspberries and cream cheese (funnily enough, I posted raspberry sweet rolls this morning… with cream cheese frosting).
Love how you made yours gluten free. I must give it a try!
Oh, I can’t wait to see your raspberry rolls. I had no idea until a few months ago that Smart & Final had so many organics and natural products…at a much lower price.
These look delicious! I love that you put raspberries in them! Raspberries are so nice and tart – the perfect addition to a lovely sweet bar like this!
Thank you Debi 🙂
Wow! These look amazing! Haha! Chasing the husband with a wooden spoon, sounds like something I would do!
Great minds think a like 🙂
Sandi! These look insanely good!! I can’t stop drooling! My family loves raspberries, and since its so easy to make, I have to try this next time we’re craving for something sweet! Pinned!
Thank you so much Dini 🙂
These are absolutely beautiful! And I love anything with a crumble on top. These would be great for breakfast or dessert!
Thank you so much Bintu 🙂
A few of my friends are Gluten Free now, so I’m finally venturing into new baking territory. Life must suck if nobody ever bakes for you because they can’t be bothered to learn new tricks. I have to say, these are a must next time one of those friends visits.
You are a good friend Jane 🙂
These bars look GORGEOUS! You’ve outdone yourself. I’m sure anyone would love these and never know they were gluten free! Pinned.
Thank you so much Laura 🙂
I so need these right now! Trying to cut down on sugar is hard 🙂 I think this may be the dessert for my mother-in-law’s birthday!
I hear you with the sugar, that is why I use so much almond flour to try to balance it out 🙂
WHAT SIZE PAN DID YOU BAKE THESE IN????
Hi Carole, I used a 8×8 baking pan. Thank you.
I just stumbled your crumble.
Thank you so much Matt 🙂
This is my kind of treat and perfect for a summertime barbecue dessert!
I love raspberry anything and these bars look delicious and perfect for summer get-togethers!
Thank you Julie 🙂
This is irresistible! I’m a huge lover of raspberries! Definitely trying this! 😀
I hope you like it 🙂
Ooo yum! You know it’s good when you have to literally chase every one away as soon as they come out of the oven!
🙂
These are amazing! I can totally understand why you had to rush to snap pictures of these babies! Raspberry and almond is one of my favorite flavor combos, so I am loving these bars!
Thank you so much Michelle, you made my day 🙂

Love these Sandi!! What a great recipe… I love using almond and even coconut flour in desserts. This is going to feature at our home soon. No raspberries here.. (you can gasp) Will these work with cherries?? Gorgeous pics too!
This would be incredible with cherries 🙂 Thank you so much Swayam…if you come visit, I am going to get a lot of raspberries for you.
Beautiful! Imagine black raspberries in there. I have to wait till they come on. Thanks for the goodies recipe.
Black raspberries sound amazing. We don’t get many of those here in the Bay Area. Let me know how they turn out 🙂
Could you make these with coconut sugar?
Hi Kim,
You can definitely make these with coconut sugar. Please leave a post on how they turned out so other readers know how it worked.
