Healthy Raspberry Oatmeal Bars

A pan of healthy raspberry oatmeal bars.
The healthy raspberry oatmeal bars are unbelievably delicious and simple to make.

These healthy raspberry oatmeal bars are a family and friend favorite. A perfect accompaniment to a summer BBQ or a spontaneous get-together.

I’ve been making these raspberry oatmeal bars for a few years now and they’ve quickly become my brother’s favorite. The unsweetened raspberry offers a tart bite surrounded by sweet oats. You’ll also get a tiny fiber boost from the whole wheat. These raspberry oatmeal bars will remind you of a portable fruit crumble! They’re also super customizable!

Raspberry Oatmeal Bar Ingredients:

Oatmeal layer and top crumbles

  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
  • ¾ cup white flour
  • ¾ cup wheat flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 Tbs cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 (4 Tbs) stick butter, softened

Delicious delicious raspberry filling 

  • 1 (12oz) bag frozen fruit. I like raspberries the best!
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 2 Tbs lime juice

Lets Get Cooking:

  1. Pre-heat an oven to 375ºF
  2. Mix frozen raspberries & other filling ingredients in a bowl. Set aside to let the mixutre defrost.
  3. Combine all oatmeal layer ingredients into a bowl and mix well. The mixture should form somewhat of a crumbly dough.
  4. Press 3/4 of the mixture into the bottom of a greased pan. I prefer a 8×8 pan but you can use something a little bigger if you want to base to be thin.
  5. Cook base for 15 minutes.
  6. After the base has cooked pour the raspberry mixture on top of the base and sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture on top.
  7. Cook for another 30 minutes 375ºF.
  8. Eat these deliciously healthy raspberry oatmeal bars warm (with ice cream!) or let them cool and serve them like bars!
