How to Make Cream Filled Oat Bars
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a 9x9-inch square baking pan.
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups rolled oats, 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into cubes. Mix until the mixture is crumbly.
- Press half of the crumbly oat mixture into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Spread the cooled lemon milk mixture evenly over the baked oat layer.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumbly oat mixture over the lemon filling.
- Gently press the top layer into the filling.
- Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still slightly soft.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
