Jenny commented on my previous blog asking what I made for the Potluck. Well, here it is.
I made some Crispy Oatmeal Bars for the Caring Place Community Kitchen potluck. We’ve got very short notice on the potluck, just the day before the potluck. I had to look for a recipe which I can make without going out for last minute shopping and I found this Crispy Oatmeal Bars where I had all the ingredients on hand.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 shortening (or margarine or butter)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup flour
- 1 1/2 cups quick oatmeal (not instant)
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts or raisins or other dried fruit or chocolate chips

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
 Cream together sugars and shortening. |
 Add egg, salt, vanilla and baking soda and mix well. |
 Blend in the remaining ingredients. |
 The dough will be stiff. Press the dough into the bottom of a greased 9″ x 13″ pan. |
 Bake at 350F for 20 to 25 minutes, or until light golden brown. Do not overbake. |

This sounds excellent. We are oatmeal fiends, so I’m bookmarking this one for sure. :)
