Ingredients:
2 c. all-purpose flour |
2 c. rolled oats |
1 1/4 c. light brown sugar |
2 tsp. ground cinnamon |
4 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted |
1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce |
2/3 c. strawberry jam or preserves |
Directions:
1. PREHEAT the oven to 350° F. Line an 8 by 8 baking sheet or cake pan with parchment paper, lightly grease with vegetable cooking spray, and set aside.
2. COMBINE the flour, oats, sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl and stir well. Add the butter and applesauce, and mix until slightly wet crumbs form.
3. PRESS two-thirds of the oats mixture into the prepared pan, pressing to a uniform half-inch thickness. Spread the jam over the top layer, using a small offset spatula or the back of a spoon to evenly spread onto the oats. Crumble the remaining oats mixture over the jam to form a uniform thickness. Bake until the top is golden brown, 30 minutes.
4. REMOVE from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting.
5. CUT the cooled cake into bars measuring 1 1/2 by 1 1/4 and serve immediately, or wrap individually in plastic wrap. (The bars will keep at room temperature for up to two days, and refrigerate for up to four days.)
