I have not tried this recipe. I got it from Tops courtesy of Oregon Raspberry & Blackberry Commission. Ingredients:
2 cups blackberries or 2 cups raspberries |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons water |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 cup flour |
1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats |
2/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter, melted |
Directions:
1. For filling, in a medium saucepan combine berries, sugar, water, lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for about 8 minutes or till slightly thickened, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
2. In a mixing bowl stir together flour, oats, brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and baking soda. Stir in melted margarine till thoroughly combined. Set aside 1 cup of the oat mixture for topping. Press remaining oat mixture into an ungreased 9x9x2 pan. Bake in a 350 oven for 20-25 minutes.
3. Carefully spread filling on top of baked crust. Sprinkle with reserved oat mixture. Lightly press oat mixture into filling.
4. Bake in the 350 oven for 20-25 minutes more or till topping browns.
5. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
