Found at Better Homes & Gardens. I love rhubarb! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup brown sugar (packed) |
3/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup granulated sugar |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
2 cups sliced rhubarb |
3/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
3 -4 teaspoons orange juice or 3 -4 teaspoons milk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. 2. Line 8x8-inch baking pan with heavy foil extending beyond pan's edges. 3. In a large bowl stir together oats, 1 cup flour, and brown sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 4. Set aside 1 cup oat mixture. Press remaining mix on bottom of prepared pan. 5. Bake bottom crust for 25 minutes. 6. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl stir together granulated sugar, 2 Tbsp flour, and ground ginger. 7. Add rhubarb; toss to coat. Spread on hot crust. Sprinkle reserved 1 cup oat mixture on top and press lightly. 8. Bake bars for 30-35 minutes, or until top is golden and filling is bubbly. 9. Cool on a wire rack. 10. When bars are cool, make the icing: In a small bowl stir together powdered sugar, ground ginger, and orange juice or milk. 11. Drizzle icing over bars. 12. Lift bars from pan, using foil as a sling. Cut into squares. 13. Store, covered, in refrigerator. |
