Heat the oven to 350°F. Leave a 2-inch overhang on all four edges of an 8-inch square baking pan before foiling. Add butter or nonstick cooking spray on foil.

Step 1

In a large basin, mix flour, baking soda, salt, rolled oats, and light brown sugar. Blend well. 

Step 2

Using a pastry blender or fork, chop the butter into the flour mixture until it is crumbly and holds together when squeezed.

Evenly press two-thirds of the crumb mixture into the prepared pan. Place jam evenly on top, leaving a ½-inch border on both sides.
