Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8-inch pan with aluminum foil.
  2. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 30-45 seconds, then whisk in granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. Stir in all-purpose flour, rolled oats, and a pinch of salt, mixing until just combined and reserving one heaping cup for topping.
  4. Press the remaining oat mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  5. Spread raspberry preserves evenly over the pressed oat crust.
  6. Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture over the raspberry layer, gently pressing to create clumps.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes until edges are set and lightly golden.
  8. Allow bars to cool in the pan for at least 2 hours before slicing.
