Apple Oatmeal Bars

I served these the other night for my Knitting Group and it got rave reviews. It's so simple to make!
Preheat oven to 350.

• 1 cup oatmeal
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
  
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 1/2 cups peeled and chopped apples
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
  

Combine the first 5 ingredients and pat into an 8x8 inch pan. Layer on apples and sugar. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Bake 35 mins at 350.
