Not sure if this will work for you--REC: Apple Butter Bars
I first tried this recipe in 1986 when I was looking for ways to use up the excessive apple butter I had made. I have been making it ever since. Since I love the apple butter filling I have never tried any other filling but I am sure you could probably use your favorite fruit butter, jam or preserves.
Apple Butter Bars
Southern Living 1984 Annual
1 1/2 C flour
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
2 1/2 C quick oats
1 1/2 C sugar
1 C butter, melted
1 1/2 C apple butter
Combine flour, soda, and salt in a large bowl; add oats and sugar. Stir in butter and mix well. Press 1/2 of mixture into a greased 13 x 9 pan; top with apple butter. Sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture, and press in gently with a spoon.
Bake at 350°F for 55 minutes or until browned. Cool and cut into 36 bars.
Note: I usually add some coarsely chopped walnuts to the crumb topping before spreading it on top of the apple butter.
