List of Ingredients
Filling:
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 Tbs. orange peel
1 Tbs. butter or margarine
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup chopped walnuts
Crust:
2 cups flour
1 1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup sugar
3 cups quick oats
Recipe
In a saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil. Add cranberries and cook until they pop; about 4-6 min. Add orange juice, peel, butter, cinnamon and salt. Cook 5 more minutes until mixture thickens. Remove from the heat; stir in walnuts, set aside.
In a bowl, combine the flour and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Add sugar and oats; mix well. Spoon half of the crust mixture into an ungreased 13x9" pan. Pat down firmly. Spread filling evenly over crust. Top with remaining crumb mixture, pat lightly. Bake at 400 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Cool and cut into small bars.
