Berry Oat Bars

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or gluten free substitute)
  • 1 ½ cups quick oats
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • ⅓ cup coconut sugar (or granulated)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup raspberry preserves

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 8×8 baking pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  2. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, except for preserves. 
  3. Using your hands press 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom of your pan until it's even and relatively flat. 
  4. Gently spread preserves, leaving 1/2" around the outside. (The preserves will scald if up against the edge of the pan.)
  5. Using your hands, evenly crumble the remaining 1/3 of the mixture over the top of the preserves and lightly press so the crumbles stay in place after baking. 
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes on a center rack until lightly browned on top.
  7. Let cool in pan on top of a cooling rack. Cut and serve!
