Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup finely-chopped pecans
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) salted butter, melted
- 1 cup raspberry jam or preserves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, allowing extra paper to extend over the sides of the pan. Spray parchment with baking spray.
- In a large bowl, stir together flour, oats, pecans, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. Add melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly.
- Reserve 1 cup of the flour mixture. Press the remaining flour mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Spread the raspberry preserves onto the crust in the pan. Sprinkle the reserved flour mixture over top, squeezing together with your hands to make clumps.
- Bake until golden brown, about 50-55 minutes.
- Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then refrigerate until firm (at least 1 hour).
Notes
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick oats or "instant oats") for the best texture.
- Chop the pecans fairly small. You don't want them in a fine powder -- texture is good! -- but they should be small enough that they don't cause the crust to fall apart.
- Pick a high-quality brand of raspberry jam or preserves, since this is a key ingredient. I prefer Bonne Maman preserves.
- Chill the bars before slicing. They need some time to cool in order to set up. If you cut into the warm bars, you'll have a crumbly mess rather than neat squares.
