This was so much easier than I thought it would be, which is always a major plus. It's got fruit and oats so it's suitable for a quick breakfast but also makes for a lovely snack or dessert.
Ingredients:
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup oats
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp Cinnamon (optional)
1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
1 stick of butter
3/4 cup raspberry preserves/jam
Heat oven to 350. Grease a 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking pan and line the pan with greased foil for easy removal.
The jam can be homemade by cooking down raspberries and sugar until desired consistency is met, however I have no issue using a good store bought jar of jam.
In a bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, oats, baking soda, salt, and optional Cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix well. Cut in the butter and mix until chunky and coarse. Heat the raspberry jam for 30 seconds in the microwave for easy spreading. Press 2 cups of crumb mix into bottom of pan. Spread jam evenly on top. Sprinkle remaining crumb mix on top and lightly press down. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool completely, then pull out of the pan using foil and then cut into bars.
