Blueberry Oatmeal Bars
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup margarine
- 1 cup blueberry preserves
- non-stick cooking spray
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat an 8x8 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients plus the vanilla and mix well.
- Add the margarine and cut it into the dry mixture using two dinner knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal and is no longer powdery.
- Do not over-mix... bits of butter will still be visible.
- Set aside about half of the oat mixture and press the remaining firmly into the pan.
- Bake until lightly browned at the edges (but not completely baked)... roughly 13-15 minutes.
