Description
These Berry Oat Bars are soft, crumbly, and bursting with fruity sweetness—a wholesome treat that brings comfort in every bite. I first made them as a cozy afternoon pick-me-up and now keep a batch on hand for anytime snacking. They’re simple, satisfying, and sweetened naturally for a treat you can feel good about.
Ingredients
½ cup coconut oil, melted
1½ cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free substitute)
1½ cups quick oats
⅓ cup maple syrup
⅓ cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup raspberry preserves (or your favorite fruit spread)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add melted coconut oil and maple syrup. Stir until crumbly but holds together.
Press ⅔ of the mixture into the bottom of the pan.
Spread raspberry preserves evenly over the base.
Sprinkle remaining oat mixture on top and gently press down.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden. Cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Sweet, soft, and naturally fruity—these bars are the perfect balance of dessert and wholesome goodness.
