BLACKCURRANT OAT BARS

Blackcurrant Oat Bars Recipe @ http://treatntrick.blogspot.com


It's a time for my weekend baking and am craving for a quick but tasty dessert that can be put together  in  less than 15  minutes.    Any guess?

Definitely my choice  goes to  Blackcurrant Oatmeal Bars  reason  being I am able to make use of fruit jam  that sits idle in my pantry for quite some time.

Oats are a favorite of my diet and often incorporated into bars and desserts.  Not only oats are versatile and inexpensive but they offer a host of health benefits. The oatmeal gives  a nice chewiness to these  bars.

Spread dough onto bottom of baking pan coated with butter.  Spreading dough with wet hands is the easiest method before topping it with fruit jam. I used blackcurrant jam but any jam you have on hand will do preferably a  quality and not too sugary ones.

Blackcurrant Oat Bars  are easy to make and fantastically delicious! Have given some to my friends, they love them and keep asking for more...

Your Blackcurrant Oat Bars look fantastic! I have made something similar with blueberries, but I know my husband in particular would love your blackcurrant version. He really likes blackcurrant flavours! (I would like them too of course!!) Thank you so much for sharing this delicious recipe with the Hearth and Soul Link Party!
