Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine oats and water. Soak overnight, or for at least 8 hours. Drain and set aside.

  5. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
  6. Pour mixture into greased pan. Spread in an even layer.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes, or until well set. Remove from oven and cool completely in the pan.
  8. Cut into 16 equally sized pieces. Place 8 pieces on a clean work surface and spread evenly with preserves. Place remaining bars on top.
