Raspberry Oatmeal Bars

From THE MAGUIRE HOUSE

Cooking Time:

30 to 35 minutes

Yield:

serves 9

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 3/4 cup seedless raspberry jam

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch square pan, and line with greased foil.

Combine the brown sugar, flour, baking soda, salt, and oats. Rub in butter using a pastry blender to form a crumbly mixture. Press 2 cups of the mixture into the bottom of the pan. Spread the jam to within 1/4-inch of the edge. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the top, and lightly press it into the jam.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned. Allow to cool before cutting into bars.
