Raspberry Oatmeal Bars

Raspberry Oatmeal Bars

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/8 tsp salt

1/2 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup raspberry jam- (you can use strawberry or any other flavors if you would like)

First, mix all your dry ingredients up...

Add your butter to the dry ingredients and mix with your hands or a pastry blender until crumbly. Kinda like making pie crust :)

Press 2 cups of this mixture into your prepared pan.

Spread your jam on top of your base. Now raspberry is good but you can also use strawberry which is my favorite... Try what ever flavors you would like

Then sprinkle the remaining crumbly mixture on top of your jam and press it lightly with your hands.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes... 

Slice and serve nice and warm!!! Or in the morning with some milk! Enjoy!
