Inspired by the recipe found on Move Nourish Believe, I give to you the sweetest raspberry treat that won’t break the calorie bank.

Raspberry Bars

A cookie bar type base (made with healthier alternatives), topped with raspberry preserves with crumbles of cookie bar dough to round it out.

So very good.

Sweet enough to satisfy that raging sweet tooth, healthy enough to not send you over the calorie clif.  Win!

Step 1: Mix together wet ingredients until combined.  Add dry ingredients (minus the oatmeal), blending until fully combined.  Stir in oats and spread into a 9×13 cake pan.

Step 2: Spread raspberry preserves over the top of the cookie base in an even layer.

  I used a full jar of sugar free preserves and half a jar of regular.

Step 3: Add to a 350 oven and bake for 25-30 minutes.  Let cool completely before cutting into bars.  Enjoy!
