I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out really crumbly. I think I might have over-mixed the batter.

These bars are the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack. I like to make a batch on the weekend and then grab one or two throughout the week.

I love how easy these bars are to make. I can just throw all the ingredients in a bowl and mix them together. No need to get out the mixer or the food processor.

These bars were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some more butter or oil next time.

I'm not a huge fan of oatmeal, but I really enjoyed these bars. They were fudgy and chocolatey, with just the right amount of oats.

The bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These oatmeal bars were a hit with my family! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly fudgy and delicious. I will definitely be making these again soon.
