Instructions

  • Preheat the oven the 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix and oats.
  • Add the melted butter.
  • Stir in the butter until fully incorporated. The batter will be thick and form a dough ball.
  • Put approximately 3 cups of the mixture into a 9 X 13 pan. Press firmly into the bottom on the pan. (I also sprayed a bit of oil in the pan to keep things from sticking just in case).

  • In a small bowl, combine the water and jam. Stirring the jam with a bit of water helps it spread over the top of the crust.
    Mixing the Jam with Water for Dessert Bars
  • Spread the jam over the crust evenly.
