Step-by-Step Instructions for Raspberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8-inch square pan with cooking spray and foil.
  2. Melt ½ cup of butter in a microwave-safe bowl for about 1 minute and let cool slightly.
  3. Whisk together ½ cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the melted butter.
  4. Stir in 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats, and a pinch of salt until crumbly. Reserve 1 heaping cup for topping.
  5. Press the bulk of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to create an even layer.

  7. Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture over the raspberry preserves.
  8. Bake for approximately 30 minutes until edges are set and lightly golden. Let cool for at least 2 hours.
