Ingredients

1/2 cup organic butter, softened
1/4 cup organic apple sauce
3/4 cup organic brown sugar
1 1/2 cups organic rolled oats
1 cup organic wheat germ
1 cup organic flour
1 teaspoon pink himalayan salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup organic raspberry preserves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan with grapeseed oil. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, applesauce and brown sugar until smooth. Combine the oats, wheat germ, flour, salt and baking powder; stir into the creamed mixture. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the preserves over the crust. Crumble the remaining crust mixture over the raspberry layer. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until light brown. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
