PER BAR:

Preheat oven to 350~. Grease a 9" square pan. Line bottom & two side with foil, letting foil extend over the edges. Grease foil. Combine flour, oats, sugar, salt & soda. Cut butter into pieces & add to mixture, cutting in until the mixture is moist & crumbly. Remove 1½ cups of these crumbs & set aside, press remaining crumbs into the pan. Spread jam to within ¼" of the edge of the pan. Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture on top of jam. Bake until golden brown, about 45-55 min. Cool completely, before cutting into bars.
