Zubereitung von Guava Bars
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan and line it with foil or parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to help with lifting out the bars later. Lightly grease the foil/parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups brown sugar, 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 3 cups rolled oats.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press half of the crumb mixture firmly into the prepared pan to create the bottom crust.
- Slice about 8 ounces of guava paste into pieces that are approximately ¼ inch thick. Arrange the guava paste slices evenly over the crust, leaving about ¼ inch of space from the edges.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the guava paste layer. Lightly press down with the back of a fork or spatula to adhere.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the guava is slightly softened. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the foil/parchment paper overhang. Cut into 16-24 bars and enjoy!
