Cranberry Sauce Bars

1 cup flour
1 cup oatmeal
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup whole cranberry sauce, drained

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients: flour, oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, and melted butter, until crumbly (large crumbs).

Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture. Press the remainder into an ungreased 8- or 9-inch square pan.

Spoon and spread the cranberry sauce over the crumb mixture. Sprinkle with the reserved crumbs and gently pat.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and cut in bars. (Store in the refrigerator.)

Makes 16-24 bars.

NOTE: Recipe may be doubled and mincemeat may substitute for the cranberry sauce.
