Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1.25 cups raspberry jam
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 0.5 cup rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until a crumbly dough forms.

Step 4

Take about 2/3 of the dough mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create the crust. Set the remaining dough aside for the topping.

Step 5

Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the crust, leaving a small margin along the edges to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Sprinkle the fresh raspberries evenly over the jam layer.

Step 7

To the reserved dough, add the rolled oats and mix to create the streusel topping. Sprinkle this mixture over the raspberry layer, covering it evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the edges are bubbling slightly.

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan.

Step 10

Cut into 16 equal squares. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
