01
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray a 10x14-inch baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter using an electric mixer until it’s smooth and fluffy. In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda, and allspice. Gradually add this dry mix to the butter mixture and stir until well combined. Then fold in the oats with a wooden spoon until everything is mixed through.

Step 2
Press half of the oat mixture firmly into the bottom of your prepared dish to form a crust. Pop it in the oven for about 10 minutes to start baking. Once it’s out, spread the strawberries and blueberries evenly over the crust, then sprinkle the remaining oat mixture on top. Gently press down to flatten everything a bit.

Step 3
Put the dish back in the oven and bake until the edges turn golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting them into 24 squares. Enjoy!
