Directions:
- Combine dates, lemon juice and water in a saucepan, cook on very low heat for about 10 minutes, stir occasionally, remove from heat to cool.
- Cream together butter and brown sugar, stir in flour, salt, baking soda, add oats and mix well using hands. The dough will be crumbly but hold together when squeezed. Press 2/3rds of dough into an oiled 8 X 9 inch square baking pan. Stir the date mixture and spread over the dough. Crumble the remaining dough on top. (optional but highly recommended: add a bit more butter to the oats for the top) Bake for about 30 mins in 350 degree oven. Cool in pan – makes 16 award winning bars.
