Oatmeal Jam Bars
Equipment
- 1 Stand mixer
Ingredients
- 180 g rolled oats
- 240 g all-purpose flour
- 150 g brown sugar
- 50 g date sugar or granulated sugar
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp earl grey tea leaves optional
- 1 tsp acai powder or any superfood powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 226 g butter room temperature
- 10 oz jam any flavor
- ½ cup fresh fruit pieces optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Prep an 8x8 pan with a little butter or pan spray and fit with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
- Add all dry ingredients to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until combined. Add butter and continue to mix on low speed until crumbles have formed.
- Pour two-thirds of the crumble into the pan and press into a smooth, even layer. Top with the jam and smooth out. Add the fresh fruit, if using.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumble on top of the jam and gently press it down into the jam.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes. The jam should be just starting to bubble and the crumble will be a nice golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.
