Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 3/4 cup seedless blackberry jam
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted. Stir the butter while it cooks. It will go from bubbly, to foamy, to amber brown in minutes. It is done when you smell a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn the butter. Remove and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and egg yolk. Slowly mix in the flour, oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg until a crumbly mixture forms.
- Press half the mixture firmly into a greased 8x8 baking dish. Spread the blackberry jam over the crust. Sprinkle with the remaining crumble mixture.
- Bake for 25-28 minutes. Remove and let cool completely.
- In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and water. Drizzle over the top of the cooled bars. Let set. Cut into 12 bars. Store in a sealed container on the counter.
