In a large bowl mix flour, sugar, cold butter cubes, and oats. Use a pastry blender or your hands to bring it to a coarse meal-like consistency.

Pour half of the flour mixture in a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Reserve some of it for the topping. Pour one cup Raspberry Jam and spread it out evenly with a spoon or spatula. Now sprinkle the remaining flour mixture on the jammy layer.

Bake this in a preheated oven at 350°F or 180°C for 30-32 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Bring it down to room temperature and cut into bars. Serve.
