Gluten Free Almost Nutri-Grain Bars

I've been wanting cereal bars for awhile now but can't stomach the ridiculous cost of either the gluten-free or the gluten-full ones.  These bars last us for at least two breakfasts and sometimes three.  They aren't the exact texture of Nutri-Grain Bars but they disappear a whole lot faster!  :-)

One "Almost Nutri-Grain Bar"  because I can never get
a picture of the whole pan before it's devoured.  :-)

Ingredients:
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups gluten free all-purpose flour
1-1/3 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
10 ounces jam
1 tablespoon water

Combine oats, flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.  In a separate bowl combine oil, eggs, vanilla, and milk.  Stir wet ingredients into dry.

Press 1/2 the mixture evenly into a well greased 9x13 pan.

Mix the jam and water and spread evenly over the mix.

Spread the remaining oat mixture over the jam and bake at 325 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool completely before cutting.

For a gluten-full recipe reduce the baking soda to 1 teaspoon.
