Jam Mazurkas (inspired By Mean Chef)

Total Time: 1 hr 5 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 50 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 24
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup walnuts, ground
• 1 1/2 cups coconut
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 -1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (i prefer the lesser amount)
• 1 large egg
• 12 ounces butter, melted and cooled
• 1 3/4 lbs jam (use a good-quality one of your choosing)

Recipe

• 1 preaheat oven to 350°f.
• 2 combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. break up any clumps of sugar with your finger tips and work the ingredients to mix them.
• 3 add melted butter and egg and work with fingers (i used one hand so i wouldn't get both gunky) to combine well.
• 4 press half of dough in a foil-lined 15 x 10 inch pan, working well into edges and pressing down to compact.
• 5 spread out jam of your choosing to within 1/2 inch of edges of pan - do not be tempted to use more jam than called for, the bars will be too sweet.
• 6 take handfuls of remaining dough mixture and crumble it over pan, distributing evenly. press down with palms of hand to compact - but not too hard.
• 7 bake until golden-brown. 50 minutes in my oven (and to my taste).
• 8 cool completely before cutting. cut lengthwise into 4 even rows and crosswise into 6.
