Another great recipe I found on pinterest. The contributor credited Pioneer Woman with the original recipe.

Kay,
I haven’t been able to be on your site much lately because of laptop problems, so hate to start in with this type of comment…but…This recipe looks delicious and I love lemon bars, but as I read through the recipe I noticed it said to add the oats after the flour. I can not find where the amount of oats is listed. Am I blind or is it really missing?
Thanks, Virgie
Oh–thank you so much for pointing that out!!!! I’ll go back and edit the recipe.
Virgie—I hope you saw that it was 1 cup of oatmeal. Feel free to point these things out.
