I've made these at least six times...I took them to a party, and to work, and everyone raves about them! Be sure to bake them long enough, or the center will be sticky. I've doubled the main recipe and used a 13" X 9" pan, and they are great!

Delicious!!!! I would recommend using at least 2 cups of blueberries. My whole family enjoyed these. I will definately keep this recipe on hand.

Yummy with a cup of tea, or in the kids lunchbox.

These are delicious! Following Kate Newell's suggestion, I doubled the recipe in a 9x13 pan. However, the finished bars seem a bit "floppy," for lack of a better word. I was a bit sparse with the bottom layer, in fear that I wouldn't have enough left for the top, but next time I will pack the bottom more tightly and bake it for a few minutes longer to see if that helps firm up the base.

I enjoyed making this recipe with my 11 yr. old son for his soccer team picnic. We used a bag of frozen blueberries from the grocery store because fresh berries are so expensive. The recipe (doubled) according to Kate Newell's recommendations turned out just fine and it was very easy for the two us.

These bars are a great fresh tasting treat they are not too sweet. I used 2 cups of blueberries as per another review. I also tried two batches one with old fashioned oats rough chopped and one with them left whole, I prefered the chopped ones.

I added some extra bluberries, and i added a touch of cinnamin to the crust. Wonderful! My boyfriend loved them! Will be making again. I think that this would also be great with other typed of berries.

Recipe didn't specify, so I used O.F. oats - I think quick would have worked better. I also found it to be too sweet for my liking, but I will try again with quick oats and less sugar.

Used fresh raspberries from my garden. Really tasty bars. Will make again. Added cinnamon and nutmeg in the filling.
