These might top my favorite recipe that Gab has ever made for me. She shared it with our Marc & Barb email list, and I wanted to share it with y’all! It is SO good & pretty healthy too!
JAM BARS Recipe
Crust and topping: 1 1/2 C whole wheat flour 1 1/2 C old fashioned oats 1 C coconut (or brown) sugar 14 Tbs grass fed salted butter 1 tsp baking powder
Jam: 6-8 cups (depending on fruit size) assorted fruit from your fruit bowl or freezer that needs to be used up! (I used 2 cups pears, 1 1/2 cups raspberries, 1 1/2 cups blackberries, 2 cups strawberries) 1 tsp cinnamon 1/2 coconut (or brown) sugar 1/4 cup chia seeds
Directions:
Combine all of the crust/topping ingredients in a bowl. Mix with hands until coarse crumbles form. Use half as crust and half as topping
Let the fruit become warm and let it release juices heated on medium on the stove. Add cinnamon and brown sugar – stir to dissolve. Add chia seeds. Turn off heat and let stand 10 minutes. Use hand blender to purée. Pour over crust layer.
Bake at 350 for 40 minutes (turn in oven halfway through). Store in airtight container for up to 5 days.
