- 1 ¼ cups Quaker Old Fashioned Oats
- 1 cup Quaker Oat Flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar
- 1/8 tsp baking soda

Cooking Instructions

- In a large mixing bowl, combine oat flour, old fashioned oats, sugars, baking soda and salt. Mix well.
- Melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl at 30 second intervals until completely melted.
- Pour margarine and vanilla over the dry ingredients. Mix using a spatula until mixture is thoroughly moistened and resembles a crumble.
- Pull 1 cup of crumble mixture out of the bowl and set aside.
- Add 1 tbsp of water to the remaining mixture in the bowl. Mix to moisten. Transfer the remaining crumble into the baking pan. Press the crumb into the bottom creating a smooth layer.
- If your berry jam is thick, microwave it for 30 seconds to loosen it up. Spread the jam or preserves evenly onto the smooth crumb crust using a spatula or spoon.
- Sprinkle fresh fruit and remaining crumble evenly across the jam layer.
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 min until jam is bubbly and crumb topping is golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
