Matrimonial Bars are a delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. These bars are made with a combination of oats, brown sugar, and butter, and are topped with a sweet and tangy raspberry filling. They are easy to make and are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
To make Matrimonial Bars, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup quick-cooking oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the filling:

- 1 cup raspberry jam
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
To make the crust, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
While the crust is baking, make the filling by mixing together the raspberry jam and lemon juice in a small bowl. Once the crust is done, spread the raspberry filling evenly over the top. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set.
Once the Matrimonial Bars are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, cut them into bars and serve.
