Cinnamon Raisin Bars image

Soft, plump raisins layered in a crispy crunchy crust and drizzled with sweet cinnamon icing. My Mom made these yummy bars often over the years. They are absolutely delicious and deceptively easy! Craisins and/or golden raisins make great additions to the standard raisin filling.

Time 1h5m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
2 tablespoons water (divided)
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup water
2 cups raisins
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon milk (1 to 2)

Steps:

  • Combine the raisin filling ingredients in a saucepan and heat over medium heat until the raisins are plump and the liquid has almost completely evaporated (about 10 minutes).
  • While the raisin filling is heating, cream the butter and brown sugar together, mix in the dry ingredients and 1 tablespoon of water (it will be very crumbly).
  • Press half of the mixture (about 2 cups) firmly into the bottom of a greased 9"x13" pan and spread with the raisin filling.
  • Mix 1 tablespoon of water with the remaining crumbs and scatter over the raisin filling.
  • Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes and then cool slightly.
  • Mix together the cinnamon icing, adding enough milk to make a drizzling consistency, drizzle over the top and cut into squares.

These bars were delicious! The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the glaze.

These bars were easy to make and turned out great! I used a different type of glaze, but it still worked well.

I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon, but I really enjoyed these bars. The raisins add a nice sweetness and the glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

These cinnamon raisin bars were a hit with my family! They're so moist and flavorful, and the glaze on top really takes them to the next level. I will definitely be making these again.
