Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, quick oats, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until fully incorporated.
  3. Melt the coconut oil if solid, and mix into the dry ingredients along with maple syrup until a dough forms.
  4. Press about two-thirds of the oat mixture into the prepared baking pan evenly.
  5. Spread the raspberry preserves over the oat mixture, leaving about ½ inch around the edges.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture over the preserves and gently press it down.
  7. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until lightly golden.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
