OATMEAL RAISIN SQUARES - Metabolism Series
  Serves:     24

INGREDIENTS:


4 cups         Old-Fashioned Quaker Oatmeal
2 cups         Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup     Dark-brown sugar
1 cup         Pecans, chopped
1 teaspoon     Baking soda
1 teaspoon     Salt
1 1/2 cups     Margarine
2 teaspoons     Pure vanilla extract
2 cups         Raisins
Zest of l    Lemon
1/2 teaspoon     Ground cinnamon
Nonstick cooking spray

DIRECTIONS:


1.    Preheat oven to 350°F.
2.    In large bowl, add first 5 ingredients; stir to combine. Add melted butter and vanilla and stir; set aside.
3.    In small saucepan, combine raisins, 1/2 cup water, lemon zest, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and immediately reduce heat to simmer; continue cooking for 2 minutes. Let cool slightly. Transfer mixture to food processor; process until smooth. If mixture is liquid, strain through fine mesh strainer, discarding liquid.
4.    Spray 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Transfer half oat mixture to baking dish and press down to form even layer. Using offset spatula, spread raisin mixture over oat layer. Top with remaining oat mixture, pressing down to form an even layer.
5.    Transfer to oven and bake until golden brown on top, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting into 2-inch squares. Oatmeal-raisin squares may be stored, wrapped in plastic wrap, for up to 5 days.
