Sun Oven Almond Apricot Bars


Serves: 5
Total Calories: 874
Yield: 24 bar

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup apricot jam

Directions:

Set Sun Oven out to preheat

Blend together flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor, then add butter and blend until dough begins to form. Transfer to a bowl and knead in oats and almonds until combined.

Reserve 3/4 cup dough, then press remainder evenly into the bottom of two buttered 7- by 9- inch metal baking pans* and spread jam over it. Crumble reserved dough evenly over jam, then sprinkle with remaining 3/4 cup almonds.

Bake in preheated Sun Oven approx. 40 minutes. If you are baking both pans at once, the top one will bake slightly faster. Cool completely in pans on a rack. Loosen from sides of pans with a knife, then lift out in one piece and transfer to a cutting board.

Cut into 24 bars.

*pans can also be lined with parchment paper instead of buttering them.
