    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 35 minutes
    Total Time: 45 minutes
    Servings: 9 bars

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 1 cup all purpose flour
    • 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
    • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
    • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 2 cups leftover cranberry sauce

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8 x 8 pan with cooking spray.
      In a medium bowl combine melted butter, flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.
      Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand and is clumpy. Set aside 1 cup of the mixture.
    • Transfer the remaining mixture into the prepared pan and pat down with your fingers or the backside of a spoon.
    • Top the crust with cranberry sauce and spread into an even layer.
      Sprinkle the remaining cup of crumb over the bars.
    • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the center is set and the crumb topping is golden brown.
      Allow the bars to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
      I let them cool then place in the freezer for 15-30 minute to make it easier to cut. If you cut before they are cool it will make a mess.
