STRAWBERRY BARS 
1 c. all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/3 c. firm butter
1/4 c. milk
Powdered sugar
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. oatmeal
1 egg
2/3 c. strawberry jam

In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and granulated sugar; mix in oatmeal. Cut in butter until mixture forms coarse crumbs. Beat egg and milk. Gradually add egg mixture to flour mixture, mixing until well blended. Spread about half of the dough in a greased, paper lined or non stick 8" square baking pan. Spread evenly with jam. Drop remaining dough evenly by spoonfuls over jam. Bake at 375 degrees until well browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Cut into bars while still warm. Sift lightly with powdered sugar.
