Ingredients
- 1 16.9 ounce box organic Wild Blueberry muffin mix*
- 1 cup oats**
- 1/3 cup coconut palm sugar can substitute with brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons 3/4 stick Horizon Dairy Organic Salted Butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 9 ounce jar (about 14 tablespoons) all-fruit blueberry jam or preserves***
- ¼ cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190C). Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Rinse blueberries in a colander and set aside to drain.
- In a large bowl combine dry muffin mix, oats, and brown sugar. Use a pastry cutter or a fork to cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbly.
- Set aside 1 ½ cups of the crumb mixture.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
- In a small bowl, gently combine drained blueberries, additional fresh berries, and jam. Spoon over the crust and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over top and gently press down.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into bars.

Notes
- *Any brand will work – just make sure that it includes a can of wild blueberries in the box.
- **I use Old-Fashioned rolled oats because that’s what I keep in my pantry, but quick-cooking oats would also be fine.
- ***If you can’t find blueberry jam, you can also substitute with blackberry jam or preserves.
