Cream Cheese Apple Oatmeal Bars image

Got this recipe out of a garage sale-find cookbook which was put out by the Crisco Co. It's very versatile in that you can add or subtract topping ingredients as you like. I thought peaches might be interesting to try.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think next time I will use less sugar in the batter.

I love these oatmeal bars! They're so easy to make and they're always a hit with my friends and family. I usually add a little bit of cinnamon to the batter for extra flavor.

These oatmeal bars were absolutely delicious! I made them for my family for breakfast and they were a huge hit. The apples and cream cheese give the bars a moist and flavorful texture, and the oats add a satisfying crunch. I will definitely be making
