Raspberry Oatmeal Bars ♡ Bake with me

♡ Raspberry Oatmeal Bars ♡ Buttery oat bars with a raspberry jam filling. Makes 1 9x13” pan of bars. Ingredients: •160 grams (3/4 cup) brown sugar •168 grams (12 tbsp) melted butter •1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract •1 tsp baking soda •1/2 tsp salt •170 grams (1 1/2 cups) freshly milled hard white wheat (may substitute with 180 grams (1 1/2 cups) all purpose flour) •135 grams (1 1/2 cups) rolled oats •170 grams (3/4 cup) raspberry jam Whisk together sugar, butter, and vanilla until well combined. Stir in baking soda and salt. Add flour and oats. Stir to combine. Remove 1 cup of oat mixture and reserve for later. Dump the remaining oat mixture into a parchment lined 9x13” baking dish. Press firmly into a flat even layer. Bake at 350°F / 177°C for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and spread jam evenly over the top. Crumble the reserved oat mixture over top of the jam. Return to oven and bake at 350°F / 177°C for an additional 15-18 minutes, until light golden brown. Cool completely before cutting. (If placed in fridge, the bars will firm up and be easier to cut.) Enjoy :)
