The Pioneer Woman's Strawberry Oatmeal Bars

This is a great recipe to make with the kids, no power tools needed!

205g room temperature Butter

1 1/2 cups Plain flour
1 1/2 cups Quick Oats
1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
1 tspn Baking Powder
1/2 tspn Salt
1 Jar of Jam of your choice

In a mixing bowl put all dry ingredients and mix with a fork to combine.

Mix room temperature butter with fork into the dry ingredients.  This may take a while or kids may like to use their hands.

When all mixed together no dry flour, put 2/3 of mix into buttered baking dish and press down until firm. 

Spread jam on top evenly.

Sprinkle remaining oat mix over the top evenly and gently press down.

Bake at 180c for 35 to 40 minutes.

Once cooked allow to cool completely.  If your anything like me this is difficult!  Remember hot jam BURNS!
