Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a big bowl, mix the butter and brown sugar together until it’s nice and smooth. Then, add the oats, flour, salt, and baking powder, and stir everything until it’s combined. Take about half of this mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of your prepared pan. Spread the raspberry preserves over this crust layer. Next, crumble the remaining oat mixture on top to cover the jam. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top turns a lovely light brown. Once it’s out, let it cool completely before slicing into bars.
Serving Inspiration
Enjoy these bars on their own, or pair them with a dollop of yogurt or a drizzle of honey. They also go well with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful afternoon treat.
How To Keep It Fresh
Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer freshness, keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze individually wrapped bars for up to three months.
