1 tspbaking soda
1 cuprolled oats

Instructions
Base Layer
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C or 160C fan-force. Grease and line base and 2 long sides of a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan.
Step 2
Whisk peanut butter and vanilla extract in a large bowl until combined. Stir in sugar until combined. Sift flour and bicarbonate over peanut mixture (tip in the flour kernels). Add oats and milk and stir to combine.
Step 3
Transfer to prepared pan and press surface with hands to level. Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool in pan.
Chia Jam Layer
Step 4
Heat fruit in a saucepan over a medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Once the fruit is heated through and begins to break down and bubble, use a spoon or potato masher to gently crush the fruit to your desired consistency.
Step 5
Stir in the chia seeds, lemon juice and maple syrup until combined.
Step 6
Remove from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes (jam will thicken considerably as it cools).
Step 7
After one final stir, spread jam over baked peanut butter layer. Allow to set in the fridge for 60 minutes.
Marshmallow Layer
Step 8
Place marshmallows in a heatproof bowl and heat over a pan of simmering water.
Step 9
Stir constantly while the marshmallows gradually melt.
Step 10
Once at a liquid-y consistency, work quickly to remove from the heat and pour onto the set jam layer of the slice.
Step 11
Allow to cool, then refrigerate once more for about 30 minutes or until the marshmallow fluff has set.
Serving
Step 12
