In a large bowl, combine flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Cut in 2 sticks of cold butter, and incorporate into flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until it’s crumbly.
Add egg and vanilla, and combine into flour mixture until it forms a dough-like crust mixture.
In a separate bowl, combine berries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cornstarch. You could add a little lemon juice to this for added flavor, but I didn’t have any on hand, so I didn’t.
Take 1/2 of your crust & topping mixture and pat it into the bottom of your greased 9 x 13 baking pan.
Spread berry mixture evenly over the top of the crust.
Sprinkle the remaining crust & topping mixture evenly over the berry mixture.
Bake in 375 degree oven for 35-40 minutes.
Notes
These pie squares taste great all warm out of the oven, but I think they taste even better when they have been cooled in the fridge for a few hours. It also makes cutting them into squares much easier!
