Method

  1. Pour the oil and maple syrup into a mixing bowl and whisk vigorously for 2-3 mins until combined into a caramel sauce and thickened slightly; set aside 2 tbsp in a separate bowl.
  2. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C and line a 22cm square baking tin with baking paper. Pour the olive oil caramel, sugar and ½ tsp fine salt into a saucepan and heat over a low-medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 mins until combined and bubbling. Stir in the oats.
  3. Gently fold through half the raspberries, then tip into the lined baking tin, lightly pressing into the corners. Scatter over the remaining raspberries and gently press them into the mixture with the back of a spoon. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden. Leave to cool completely. Cut into 12 pieces and drizzle with the reserved 2 tbsp olive oil caramel to serve. Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
