Oatmeal Raisin Bars

I was at my dad's house, where there is NO FOOD! So naturally I dig in the pantry and try to find some baking ingredients. I was lucky enough to find just enough to whip up the following recipe. Ironically in the fridge I found the exact amount of butter necessary to make this delicious treat! It was meant to be!

These are simple and really tasty! I added a chocolate drizzle on top just for kicks!


Ingredients

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup raisins

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together butter, sugars, egg, salt, and cinnamon until smooth. Add flour, oats, and raisins; fold in just until combined.

Spread batter in prepared pan, and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool completely in pan.
