  • ½ cup melted unsalted butter
  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ⅔ cup jam or preserves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉ and line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together ½ cup sourdough discard, ½ cup melted unsalted butter, and ⅓ cup light brown sugar.
  • Add in the 2 cups old fashioned oats, 1 cup white whole wheat flour, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir until combined.
  • Press ⅔ of the dough into the bottom of the lined baking dish.
  • Spread ⅔ cup jam or preserves over the dough.

Notes

You can use all purpose flour in place of the whole wheat flour if you prefer.
