Stir to combine and set aside.
5
Grease an 8 x 8 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cover with parchment paper. (The nonstick cooking spray helps the parchment to stick)Add half of the crumb mixture to the prepared pan. Using your fingers press the mixture into the bottom of the pan.
6
Spread the strawberry jam mixture on top. Then top with the remaining oat crumble and bake for ⏱️ 25-30 minutes or until the top looks set and golden brown.
7
Allow these bars to cool completely or they will make a huge mess. I like to pop them in the freezer to chill down faster. This also makes them a lot easier to cut.Slice, serve and enjoy!
