Step 1

Combine the ingredients for the filling into a small pot and start simmering over medium heat,, stirring often. You want to dissolve the dates and cook until it's a smooth mixture with very few lumps. Once this is finished remove from the heat and set aside.

Step 2

Start the base and topping. Combine the sugar and butter together until creamy and combined thoroughly.

Step 3

Add in the oats, flour, salt and baking soda. Mix together completely.

Step 4

Press 2/3 of the crust mix into the bottom of a 9x9 pan, saving some for the topping.

Step 5

Pour the filling on top of the bottom crust and spread it around evenly.

Step 6

Crumble the remaining oatmeal mixture as a topping evenly across the filling.

Step 7

Bake at 350 degrees until it's beautifully browned on top.

Step 8

Cool it and then cut into pieces.
