3/4 C. Butter, softened
1 C. Packed Brown Sugar
1 1/2 C. Oats (Quick or Rolled)
1 1/2 C. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 C. Raspberry Jam (Bottled jam not freezer jam)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine butter and sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute until mixture is light and fluffy. Add oats, flour, salt, and baking soda to bowl and mix with a spoon until crumbly. Press a little over half the mixture into the bottom of a greased 8x12 or 9x13 pan. Spread jam over oat mixture. Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture evenly over top of jam with your hands. Bake 20 minutes and cool completely before cutting and serving. Makes 20-24 bars.

These were great! I made them last week. I really liked them.
These were yummy and so easy to make! Do you care if I post this on the food blog that I do with others and put a link on it to your blog?
oh yeah...why do you suggest bottled jam instead of freezer jam?
Aubrey- I absolutely do not mind you posting this recipe on your food blog, go ahead.
As for the jam recommendation, freezer jam has a runny texture when it comes to room temperature and especially when it is heated. I don't think it will set up well in this recipe. If you use bottled jam, which is thicker, it will set up and not make the bars soggy.
