Orange Oatmeal Bars

This recipe is an adaption of the lemon oatmeal bars from Recipe-Go-Round

Bars:
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp grated orange peel
Juice of half an orange (you may need to reduce the butter)

Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp grated orange peel

Heat oven to 180 C / 350 F. For bars, in a large bowl, combine all bar ingredients. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often until well mixed, 1 to 2 minutes. Spread into ungreased 13x9 inch baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until wooden pick inserted in centre comes out clean.

For glaze, in small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients, stir until smooth. Spread over warm bars. Cool completely and cut into bars. Recipe will make about 3 dozen bars.
