Super Duper Strawberry Bars

Start to Finish: 30 minutes

Ingredients:
1 Cup flour
1 Cup rolled oats
1/2 Cup butter
1/3 Cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. salt
3/4 Cup strawberry jam

Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Coat an 8" baking dish with the non-stick cooking spray.
2) Combine the flour, rolled oats, butter, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
3) Measure out two cups of this mixture and set aside the remainder in the bowl for later.
4) Press the two cups of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Using a large spoon, spread the strawberry jam evenly over the top of the mixture in the pan. Take the mixture that was left in the large bowl and spread it over the strawberry jam. Press down lightly with the back of the spoon.
5) Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes. Cut into 12 squares.

Servings: 12

Notes: Good. Not the BEST Strawberry bars I have had, but still very good and extremely easy to make.

Variations: I used homemade blackberry jam and it was great. Any flavor jam would work.

Estimated Price: $3.00
