Ingredients and Method
Ingredients
- 65g porridge oats
- 60g oat bran
- 150g self-raising flour
- 100g ground almonds
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 170g butter
- 3/4 jar Tiptree Loganberry Conserve
- or
- 3/4 jar Tiptree Sweet-Tip Raspberry Conserve
Method
- Set oven at 170 degrees C (fan) or the equivalent.
- Combine all of the dry ingredients into a large basin and mix well with a spoon.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan, bringing it to the boil!
- Pour the butter carefully into the basin with the dry ingredients and mix in thoroughly with a spoon.
- Put about two thirds of the mixture into a lightly buttered brownie tray and press down firmly. (A flat fish slice is useful for this, otherwise the back of a spoon).
- Put the jam into a small basin and stir vigorously to make it smooth.
- Spread carefully onto the mixture in the brownie tin but keep away from the edges. Sprinkle the rest of the mixture evenly over the jam layer. Optional: top with flaked almonds.
- Bake in the centre of a pre-heated oven at 170 degrees C (fan) for 25 -30 minutes. Leave to cool and slice into squares for a simple, delicious treat or serve with yoghurt or cream for dessert.
