Method: Sift flour, cut butter into small pieces and rub into flour until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add rolled oats, coconut and sugar, and stir until thoroughly mixed in.

Divide into halves, put one half into greased 28 x 18 cm (11" x 7") lamington tin, firmly pressing flat. Pour warmed jam over, covering surface, spreading evenly.
