Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

• 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
• 14 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tsp Spice Islands vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
2. Add all ingredients except the Polaner Fruit Spread to the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on medium until it resembles a coarse, chunky meal.
3. Firmly press about 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan into an even layer. Spread the Polaner All Fruit Strawberry Spreadable Fruit over top.
4. Use your hands to squeeze the remaining 1/3 of the mixture into medium clumps then scatter over the strawberry layer to create the crumb topping.
5. Bake the bars for about 40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely before cutting.
