Preheat oven to 180c fan and line a 23cm x 23cm x 5cm square tin with baking parchment.
Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar and salt in a bowl. Rub in the butter using your hands to form a crumbly mixture. Press 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, pressing down firmly.
Bake for 10 minutes then remove from the oven. Spread the jam to within a ยฝ cm of the edge and scatter over the fresh raspberries. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the top and bake for 35-40 minutes until lightly browned.
Once cooked, allow to cool before cutting into squares.
