If you line the pan with aluminum foil, you can lift out the bars for easy cutting and cleanup.

Cranberries are also called bounceberries because they bounce when they're ripe!

These were just so-so. I made them exactly as written, I felt it needed more cranberries, but only had exactly the amount listed. Deffinately needed some cinnamon or something in the oat mixture. It was very bland. I made them for Thanksgiving, thought it would be nice to have another choice along with all the pies. However, I went home with all but 2 bars, and the 2 bars only got partially eaten. I give it 3 spoons because we ate them for breakfast the whole next week and they were great! Kind of "breakfast bar"-ish, or like a soft granola bar. Easy to take and eat on the run, so this was not a total loss, but not a good dessert.

I made the recipe, they were just ok. The feedback from one person was "these are really good", but 3 other people, plus myself said they are somewhat bland. Not sure what is missing, but my husband said no need to make them again.
