Raspberry Coconut Oatmeal Bars
In need of a scrumptious tasting bar? Look no further than these Raspberry Coconut Oatmeal Bars.
I needed some bars for a church refreshment and I wanted to make something with the great taste of raspberries. I found this recipe online from Taste of Home.
They made theirs with strawberry preserves but I had seedless raspberry jam on hand. I use this jam a lot for baking, a raspberry vinaigrette, and cooking.
I love the smooth consistency of it, not having the seeds in it.
This bar can be made all year round as it would be not only great for a picnic but gorgeous on a Christmas tray of goodies. ENJOY!!!
