1 1/4 c. flour
1 c. packed brown sugar
3/4 c. butter, cut up into pieces
1 1/4 c. quick-cooking oats
3/4 c. apple butter

In large bowl mix flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in oats until well blended. Press 1/2 of the mixture (about 2 1/4 cups) firmly into greased 8 inch square pan to form compact layer.

Spread apple butter to within 1/2 inch of edges. Sprinkle remaining oats mixture over apple butter; press carefully but firmly. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven 40 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool in pan on rack. Cut into 1x4 inch bars.
