How to Make Raisin Squares
- Rinse 1 cup raisins and set aside.
- In a small saucepan, melt 1/2 cup shortening over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup molasses.
- Add 1 large egg to the molasses mixture and beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, along with 1 cup rolled oats and the rinsed raisins. Mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into a lightly greased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
