OATMEAL LEMON BARS
I copied this from Calling All Cooks on Food Network. I have added a couple very minor things to make it a bit mine. All my coworkers who care for lemon bars love them. Remember some lemons are juicier than others. The crust is like shortbread with a little more texture from the oats. Hope you like them if you try them.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Butter a 13x9 pan and set aside.
- Cream butter and sugar. Slowly add flour until incorporated. Slowly add oats and blend until crumbly. Press 3/4 of mixture into the bottom of the pan to form bottom crust. Reserve remaining dough.
- The juice of 3 lemons--the recipe I used wasn't more specific on the measurement so
- if your lemons aren't very juicy please squeeze 1 or 2 more. Too little lemon juice just produces very very bland lemon bars.
- Make sure the zest is finely grated or finely chopped. Blend condensed milk, zests and juice until smooth. Pour over crust and spread to the edges of the crust.
- Crumble the reserved dough over the top.
- Bake at 350 for 30 to 40 minutes or until crust crumbles are lightly golden. Cool completely, at least 1 hour before cutting.
- Store in an airtight container.
- I wish I could tell you how long they keep but that has never come up since they disappear so quickly!
Tips:
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If using bottled lemon juice, increase the amount to 2 tablespoons.
- Be sure to chill the oatmeal mixture before baking. This will help the bars set properly.
- For a chewier bar, use old-fashioned rolled oats. For a more tender bar, use quick-cooking oats.
- If you don't have a 9x13 inch pan, you can use a 10-inch springform pan.
- The bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Oatmeal lemon cream bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying dessert that the whole family will love.
