Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup flour (all-purpose)
  • 3/4 cup rolled oats (not quick-cooking)
  • 1 cup raspberry preserves (heaping cup)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line or grease an 8 x 8 baking pan.
  • In a large glass bowl, melt butter and allow to cool for a minute or two.
  • Add brown sugar, vanilla, and sea salt and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved and smooth.
  • Stir in flour and rolled oats. Mix until well combined.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup of the oat mixture for the topping. Press remaining oats into the bottom of a greased baking pan and pat smooth.
  • Cover oats with 1 heaping cup of raspberry preserves and spread it evenly. Jam should be 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
  • Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup oats in crumbles evenly over the jam.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.
  • Allow bars to cool completely in the pan, then carefully slice and serve.
