1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease one 8 inch square pan, and line with greased foil.

2. Combine brown sugar, flour, baking soda, salt, and rolled oats. Rub in the butter using your hands or a pastry blender to form a crumbly mixture. Press 2 cups of mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the jam on top within 1/4 inch of the edge.
