Because of the whole wheat flour, I've always felt these squares were somewhat healthy. Maybe I'm kidding myself, but I definitely can say they're delicious, and perfect for any holiday goodie platter. Ingredients:
1 cup whole wheat flour (or use all-purpose) |
2 cups oats (not instant) |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
3/4 cup melted butter (or margarine, but butter is best) |
2 cups mincemeat |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375F; grease a 13x9 pan and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar and baking soda.
3. Stir in melted butter and mix together until mixture appears crumbly.
4. Firmly pat half the crumb mixture into prepared pan, then cover evenly with mincemeat.
5. Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over mincemeat and pat lightly.
6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until squares appear golden brown.
7. Cool before cutting into squares.
