Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons whole wheat flour (white)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 1/3 cups strawberries, chopped
- 3 tablespoons strawberry preserves
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2 inch overhang on two of the sides and coat paper with cooking spray.
-
Step 2: In a bowl combine the dry ingredients (oats - salt) and then stir in the butter. Press 2 cups of the oat mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes or until set and then transfer to a wire rack.
-
Step 3: In a bowl combine the rest of the ingredients (strawberries -cornstarch) - spread mixture over the crust and then sprinkle the reserved oat mixture over the top.
-
Step 4: Bake for 35 minutes or until topping is golden and filling is bubbling. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes and then lift the bars out of the pan to finish cooling on a wire rack (holding onto the overhang of the paper helps). Let cool for 1 hour before cutting into 12 bars.
