1 C. Packed Brown Sugar
1 1/2 C. Oats (Quick or Rolled)
1 1/2 C. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 C. Raspberry Jam (Bottled jam not freezer jam)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine butter and sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute until mixture is light and fluffy. Add oats, flour, salt, and baking soda to bowl and mix with a spoon until crumbly. Press a little over half the mixture into the bottom of a greased 8x12 or 9x13 pan. Spread jam over oat mixture. Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture evenly over top of jam with your hands. Bake 20 minutes and cool completely before cutting and serving. Makes 20-24 bars.

This recipe came from my friend's food blog, it's really easy and really yummy!!! You can use any flavor of jam that you want too.
I asked her why freezer jam wouldn't work and she said: As for the jam recommendation, freezer jam has a runny texture when it comes to room temperature and especially when it is heated. I don't think it will set up well in this recipe. If you use bottled jam, which is thicker, it will set up and not make the bars soggy.
