Ingredients:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 (10 oz) jar 100% all-fruit jam (i use smuckers and we like strawberry and raspberry best, but any fruit would do.) or 1 (10 oz) jar jelly (i use smuckers and we like strawberry and raspberry best
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the softened butter, flour and powdered sugar.
  2. Mix only until the mixture is crumbly - if it gets to the goopy stage it will still work, but it is harder to work with.
  3. Press mixture into the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of a 9 X 13 pan.
  4. If mixture is goopy and sticks to your hands try pressing with wet hands.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, mix together the 1/2 cup melted butter, the oats, brown sugar and cinnamon.
  7. When the short-bread crust comes out of the oven and while it's still red-hot, spread the jam or jelly over the crust. Use the whole jar.
  8. Crumble the oat mixture evenly over the jam/jelly layer.
  9. Return pan to oven and bake an additional 7 to 10 minutes.
  10. Let cool for a half hour or so before cutting into bars.
