ingredients

2 cups pitted dates
1 cup sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 1/2 cups water
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups sifted flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup butter or margarine

directions

Cook dates, sauerkraut, sugar and cinnamon in water until thick, stirring frequently. Add nuts and vanilla. Cool.

Combine flour, salt, soda, sugar, and oats; mix well. Cut in butter with fork or pastry cutter. Mixture will be crumbly.

Press half the flour mixture into a greased 9-inch x 13-inch pan. Spread the cooled date filling over the crust, then top with the other half of the flour mixture and pat gently.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and cut into bars.
