Ingredients

Crumb Crust

2 cups Organic Gluten Free Oats
2 cups Gluten Free Flour
2 cups Brown Sugar
1 cup butter or butter substitute melted - I use Earth Balance Vegan Shortening
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt

Filling

4 cups raisins chopped Or you can use dates chopped. OR you can use a mixture of both!
1/2 cup sugar organic
2 cup filtered water
3 Tablespoons corn starch

Instructions

CRUMB MIXTURE: Mix all the Crumb Crust ingredients together in one bowl. I blend with a fork, then use my hand. The topping should be very crumbly but if you put some in palm of your hand, it should hold together when crunched. See the photo.
FILLING: Put all the filling ingredients into a sauce pan and bring to boil. Continue to simmer until thickened. Remove from heat.
Spread 1/2 the crumb mix into bottom of greased 9x13 baking pan. Spread with the cooked raisins and top with the other 1/2 crumb mixture.
Bake at 350 for 25 minutes, remove and cool in pan. Cut into squares and enjoy!
