Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crust.
In a small bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, and melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the apples.
Roll out the second half of the dough and place it over the apple mixture. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Allow the bars to cool before cutting into squares.
Variations & Tips
For a richer flavor, try adding a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans to the oat topping. If you prefer a sweeter filling, mix in a tablespoon of honey with the apples. For a touch of tartness, use a mix of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp. To make this recipe gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend and ensure your oats are certified gluten-free.
