Preperation & Cooking |
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In 2-quart saucepan, heat dates, walnuts, sugar, and 1 1/4 cups water to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes, until dates are soft and mixture is thick, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, and baking soda. With hand, knead in margarine or butter until dough forms. Press half of dough evenly in bottom of 13" by 9" metal baking pan. Bake 15 minutes or until pale golden.
- Spread date mixture evenly over hot crust. Sprinkle remaining oat mixture on top. Bake 25 minutes longer or until golden. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. When cool, cut lengthwise into 4 strips, then cut each strip crosswise into 8 pieces.
