Raspberry Crumble Bars
Adapted from Time Life: Family Favorites Made Easy – recipe card 16 / Favorite Cookies
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
For bars you will need:
1½ cups oats
1 cup AP flour
½ cup butter, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
½ cup raspberry jam
7 Hershey’s chocolate kisses, chopped (or mini chocolate chips)
¼ cup sliced almonds
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare 9 x 9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Using an electric mixer with paddle attachment, combine oats, flour, butter and sugar. Reserve about ¾ cup of mixture and press remaining mixture into prepared pan.
Spread jam and ¾ cup of mixture on oat mixture. Top with chocolate and almonds.
Bake until crumbs are golden, approximately 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack and cut bars for serving.
You have just made an irresistible bar cookie that is sure to please your sweet tooth!

ReplyDeleteThese raspberry crumble bars look perfect. Somehow after following your blog for some time, the word Lazy really would be the last adjective I would use to describe you. Energetic, caring, great baker, artistic and talented would be better adjectives. Keep it up Tammy.
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks so much everyone for your lovely comments!!
ReplyDeleteChris, thank you so much for your kind words. I guess I feel like I bake so simply- I'm definitely not an elaborate baker! But I do appreciate your compliment!
Hugs,
Tammy
Raspberry, chocolate and almonds? What a delectable combination! I am a lazy baker - I like one bowl batters. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI think being a lazy baker is a good thing - we can whip easy but yummy things up with ease. This looks great and sounds delicious with those good ingredients!
ReplyDeleteSimple combination can make delicious food too. This recipe is a great one and I will bookmark this for my future bake. I love being "lazy" sometimes too as long as I get something delicious.
ReplyDeleteLooks good but I won't do this. Currently on a weightloss and this will not support me ;P
ReplyDeletethey look super delicious ~ I can almost taste them and want to grab a few :)
