Finished Oatmeal-Rhubarb Bars |
I was planning on a bar that you can pick up and eat with your fingers, but the bar didn't really hold together very well. However, the topping was crumbly and sweet and went well with the tangy rhubarb filling. It was so tasty that I don't mind eating it with a fork! And by the way- it is already half gone, so I'll have to wait for my next rhubarb harvest to share it with anyone at work... sorry!
