Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup old-fashioned whole-rolled oats don’t use quick cook or instant, they’re finer and behave like flour and will make mixture too dry
- pinch salt optional and to taste
- about 12 ounces raspberry preserves with or without seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
- To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.
- Add the sugars, vanilla, and whisk to combine.
- Add the flour, oats, optional salt, and stir to combine. Mixture will have some larger, well-formed crumble pieces as well as some sandier, dryer bits.
- Set 1 heaping cup mixture aside to be sprinkled on later as crumble topping.
- Transfer remaining mixture to prepared pan, and using a spatula or your fingers, hard-pack the mixture to create an even, smooth, flat crust.
- Evenly spread the raspberry preserves over the crust making sure there’s complete coverage. Preserves should be about 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch thick.
- Evenly sprinkle with the reserved heaping 1 cup crumble topping mixture. Before sprinkling, I squeeze the mixture in my palm to encourage bigger crumble pieces to form.
- Bake for about 30 to 32 minutes, or until edges are set and center has just set and is lightly golden browned. Place pan on a wire rack and allow bars to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
