Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil, greasing it generously.
  2. In a large bowl, combine melted unsalted butter, flour, oats, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt until crumbly.
  3. Set aside 1 heaping cup of the mixture for topping and pack the remaining into the pan to create the crust.
  4. In another bowl, mix chopped mango, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and corn starch gently to create the mango filling.
  5. Pour the mango filling over the crust in the pan and sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture on top.
  6. Bake for about 50 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center is bubbly.
  7. Allow the bars to cool in the pan for at least 1 hour before slicing.

Notes

Choose ripe mangoes for best flavor and texture. Cool bars completely before cutting for clean slices.
