You won't be able to get enough of these hearty yet sweet oat bars. The best part is that there isn't any special equipment required, not even an electric mixer! You can also have them ready to go in under an hour. Just be sure to let them cool completely in the pan so they have time to set and don't fall apart while you're cutting them into bars. Also, if you prefer, you can make these bars with fresh blueberries or with chopped peeled fresh peaches instead of the cherries. Feel free to experiment with whatever you have on hand. Pack up a square for a delicious
on-the-go dessert.
