STRAWBERRY JAM BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Butter a 7 x 11 inch tart pan with a removable bottom, and set aside.
• In the bowl of a food processor, add the flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, butter, and vanilla extract.
• Pulse until the ingredients are combined, and continue to pulse until the dough comes together into a single clump.

• Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan with your fingers.
• Spread the strawberry jam evenly over the dough.

• Bake for about 35-40 minutes until just starting to turn golden brown on the edges.
