A layer of grape jelly between a peanut-oatmeal crust and topping gives these bars a taste of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich! The recipe is from Sonja Blow of Reeds Spring, Missouri. Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1-1/2 cups quick-cooking oats |
1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts |
1 jar (12 ounces) grape jelly |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Combine the flour, salt and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture just until combined. Stir in oats and peanuts (mixture will be crumbly). 2. Press half of the mixture into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Spread with jelly. Cover with remaining crumb mixture. 3. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Yield: 2 dozen. |
