Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish, or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press about two-thirds of the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared dish to form the crust.
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until it just begins to turn golden.
- Remove the crust from the oven and spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the hot crust. Crumble the remaining oat mixture over the cherry filling.
- Return to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the filling is bubbly.
- While the bars cool, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk (or water), and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bars.
- Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the edges of the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan, then cut into squares.

Notes
- Use cold butter: This helps create a crumbly, delicious crust.
- Line with parchment paper: It makes removing and cutting the bars much easier.
- Cool completely: Let the bars cool fully before glazing and cutting to avoid crumbling.
- Substitute fillings: Try using blueberry or apple pie filling for a different twist.
