Best 6 Raspberry Jam Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches Recipes

DELICIOUS RASPBERRY OATMEAL COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 8 inch square pan, and line with greased foil.
• Combine brown sugar, flour, baking soda, salt, and rolled oats. Rub in the butter using your hands or a pastry blender to form a crumbly mixture. Press 2 cups of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the jam to within 1/4 inch of the edge. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the top, and lightly press it into the jam.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow to cool before cutting into bars.

RASPBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Toss the raspberries, sugar and lemon zest and juice in a medium saucepan to combine, then mash slightly to release some of the berry juice. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the raspberries to macerate and the sugar to dissolve. Meanwhile, place a small plate in the freezer to chill; this will be used to test the doneness of the jam.
• Place the saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium, stirring frequently. Continue to cook until the jam becomes thick and syrupy, about 25 minutes. To test doneness, place a small amount of the jam onto the chilled plate and freeze for 2 minutes. Drag your finger or spoon through it. If the jam holds its shape and thickness, the jam is done; remove from the heat. If it's runny, continue to cook and test again in 5-minute increments. Once the jam has reached the right consistency, transfer to jars and cool completely before storing, covered tightly. Jam will keep in the refrigerator up to 6 months.

SUNNY'S RASPBERRY AND OATMEAL LATTICE COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick aluminum foil.
• Melt the base. In a medium pot on medium heat, add the brown sugar, butter and pumpkin pie spice. Cook, stirring, until the butter melts and the mixture is less gritty.
• Finish the batter. In a large bowl, add the oats, flour, almond extract and egg and toss. Slowly add the butter mixture from the pot while constantly stirring the oat mixture.
• Bake and rest. Use a teaspoon to drop the batter on the prepared baking sheet about 3 inches apart to allow spreading. This will take patience and several batches. Also, to avoid a big glob, try to gently press the oats so they aren't in a mound.
• Bake on the center rack until the edges are caramelized and the centers stop rapidly bubbling, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and leave on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer the entire sheet of parchment onto a wire rack. After a few more minutes, transfer the cookies from the parchment to rest directly on the wire rack. Continue until all the batter is cooked and the cookies are fully cool and rigid, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Fill and serve. Pick 2 cookies with approximately the same size and shape and spread about 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam on the bottom/flat side of one cookie, then sandwich the matching cookie's bottom/flat side to the other; repeat until done. Store in an airtight container in a cool place, even the fridge, for up to 1 week. Happy holidays and happy cookie making!

RASPBERRY JAM OATMEAL COOKIE SANDWICHES

Using a tablespoon of dough per cookie, roll into balls and place on cookie sheets, at least an inch and a half apart (they spread a lot). Bake for a total of 12-15 minutes, rotating the cookie sheets mid-way, until cookies are golden brown. Cool on cookie sheets for 5-8 minutes before removing and letting cool completely on wire racks. Spread a thin layer of jam on the bottom of one cook ie and top with another. Repeat until all cookies are used.

HOMEMADE RASPBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Before you start, sterilise your jars (see tip below) and put a plate in the freezer to chill. Tip half the raspberries into a preserving pan and add the lemon juice. Mash the berries to a pulp over the heat with a potato masher, then leave to cook for 5 mins. Tip the cooked berries into a sieve over a bowl, then once all of the juice has drained off, firmly work the pulp through the sieve with a wooden spoon until you are left with just the seeds.
• Tip the juice and pulp back into the preserving pan and stir in the sugar. Heat gently, then add the remaining whole raspberries. Bring to the boil, then boil rapidly for 5 mins. Remove from the heat and drop a little jam onto the chilled plate. Now push your finger through it - it should wrinkle and look like jam. If it doesn't, boil for 2 mins, then test again.
• The top of the jam may look like it has sediment on it, but I find that if you stir it well as it cools, a little of this disappears. Pour into the jars and seal. It will keep unopened for a year, although the lovely bright colour will darken a little. Once open, keep in the fridge.
