I can typically stay out of brownies and cookies and cakes at my house, but when these are around, I cannot resist.

Description
It wouldn’t be September without my APPLE BUTTER BARS! Whether you use a jar from the store or make homemade, these bars are ridiculously simple and oh so delish. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 1½ cups all purpose flour
- 1½ cups old fashioned oats (you can use regular or quick cooking)
- a pinch of salt (I used Kosher salt)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1½ tablespoons cinnamon
- 1 cup melted butter
- about 8 ounces of apple butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease (I used Pam) an 8×8 baking dish. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together your flour, oats, salt, sugar and cinnamon. Next, stir in your melted butter.
- Press half of this oatmeal mixture across your prepared baking dish. After that, spread your apple butter over the mixture and then finish by crumbling (I used my hands) the remaining half of the oatmeal mixture on top.
- Pop your bars in the oven and bake about 35 minutes.
- When the bars are done baking, remove from oven and allow to cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Thanks to the melted butter, the mixture here is very wet, so don’t be alarmed. This is going to make the bars very buttery and moist when they’re done baking. I patted half of my mixture down with a spatula and then just crumbled the remaining half over with my fingers. They’re so delicious!
