RAISIN MUMBLES

When I first found this recipe I thought, what a weird name! Then I made them, and I understood completely: mumble is what you do when you bite into these delicious bars! I walked around my kitchen yumming that these simple ingredients could produce such a delicious treat. So much more than a bar, mumbles have a buttery bar...

Number Of Ingredients 13

FILLING
3 c raisins
1/2 c sugar
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 c water
1 tsp vanilla
CRUMB
1 c brown sugar
3/4 c butter, at room temp
1 3/4 c flour or gluten free flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 c oats

Steps:

  • 1. Combine filling ingredients in 3 qt. saucepan. Over medium heat, cook until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • 2. Mix crumb ingredients together until well-combined, and evenly crumbly.
  • 3. Spread half the crumb mixture in the bottom of a 9X13" baking dish, which has been prepared with food release spray. Press lightly.
  • 4. Pour raisin mixture evenly over the crumb crust.
  • 5. Spread remaining crumb mixture over the raising layer. Pat down gently but firmly.
  • 6. Bake at 400* for 20 minutes. Cool and cut.
  • 7. NOTES: I like my bars a little thicker sometimes, so I've also made this in an 11x7" baking dish, and a little extra time in the oven. This recipe is easily gluten free, by substituting gluten free flour. Also try it with a fourth to a third coconut flour, for added nutrition, fiber, and yumminess :)
