What to do with all those freaking raisins

I'm pretty sure that most people just open the trash bin when they realize they have packs of raisins sitting in their snack box that their kids won't eat and now they are literally the texture and hardness of BBs. But me, see, I can't do that. I CANNOT throw them away. I CANNOT cut my losses. It feels like actual defeat.

​So many good grapes were used to make those raisins and I am not about to take that for granted. I will make those raisins consumable. Even if it takes flour, sugar, and a stick of butter.

In fact, there is an actual Martha Stuart recipe using raisins as the filling for an oat bar, so I wasn't that crazy. I didn't really follow hers, but I was inspired by it. I soaked the raisins in hot water to make them soft again, then put them in the bullet with some water to make a jam of sorts. The base and the crumble are just oats, flour, butter, and a little sugar. And I got to feel like I saved those little raisin's lives.
