Check out these festive Cranberry Crumble Bars!!!  Not only are they really easy to make, they’re a delicious bar cookie type dessert that you’ll love!  The bottom is an oatmeal cookie, followed by some cranberry sauce, topped with a crumbly cinnamon oatmeal topping.  The red of the cranberry sauce is perfect for the season, too!  Try them out and let me know how you like them!

Start off by preheating your oven to 350 degrees and spraying a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

In a mixing bowl or in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a paddle, cream the butter and brown sugar. Add the egg and vanilla, then the baking soda and salt.  Mix in the oatmeal and the flour.  Press the oatmeal cookie base, with lightly floured hands into the prepared baking dish.

In a small bowl, stir the cranberry sauce and cornstarch together.  Spread over the oatmeal cookie base.

In a food processor, pulse the sugars, flour, and cinnamon together to mix.  Add the butter and pulse until it’s well combined and crumbly.  Stir in the old fashioned oats by hand.  Sprinkle over the cranberry sauce and bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.  Cool completely before cutting and serving.
