Ingredients
- 230 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 260 grams all-purpose flour
- 120 grams old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 300 grams raspberry preserves (seedless or with seeds)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until the mixture resembles a soft, crumbly dough.
Step 5
Press about two-thirds of the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan to create the crust. Use the back of a spoon or your hands to smooth it into an even layer.
Step 6
Spread the raspberry preserves over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent leaking.
Step 7
Crumble the remaining dough over the raspberry layer, gently pressing some of the larger crumbles together for texture.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the preserves are bubbling slightly.
Step 9
Remove the bars from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the entire block out of the pan and onto a cutting surface.
Step 10
Cut into 16 squares or bars and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
