Ingredients
Instructions
- In a large bowl stir together flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- With a pastry blender or two knives use scissor style, cut in butter or margarine until coarse crumbs form.
- With a fork stir in corn syrup and egg just until mixed.
- Reserve 1/2 cup batter.
- Press remaining batter into a 9x9x2-inch baking pan.
- spread with jam.
- Stir 2 tablespoons flour into the reserved batter.
- If preparing a lattice add a couple tablespoons of water - one at a time - to make the dough easy to roll out. If you are dropping the dough by spoonfulls then just evenly scatter the top "crust" over the jam for a "spotty" look and bake.
- On a floured surface roll out to 1/4-inch thickness.
- Cut into 1/4-inch wide strips.
- Lattice strips over jam.
- Bake in 375-degree oven 30 minutes, or until set. Cool.
- Cut into bars. Serving size is really up to you - cut into as many bars as you want.
