Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking pan. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
-
Gradually add the flour and salt to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined. The dough should be crumbly but hold together when pressed.
-
Take about 2/3 of the mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust.
-
Spread the raspberry jam over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
-
Combine the remaining dough with the oats to create a crumbly topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the raspberry jam layer.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown.
-
Allow the raspberry bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This will help the bars to set and hold their shape.
-
Serve these Easy Raspberry Bars as a delicious snack or dessert option at your next gathering, or simply enjoy them as a sweet treat with your favorite cup of tea.
