Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 F (205 C). Grease a shallow 11" x 7" baking pan with
butter. Put butter, sugar and corn syrup in a large saucepan; stir
continuously over medium heat until melted. Remove from heat. Stir rolled
oats into melted mixture. Spread half of mixture in bottom of pan to form
a thin layer. Press with the back of a spoon to compact the mixture and
smooth the top. In a medium-size bowl, mix apricots, dates and prunes
together. Sprinkle evenly over top of packed mixture. Spread remaining
mixture on top of fruit; press with spoon again. Bake about 20 minutes or
until lightly browned. Cool 5 minutes. Using a knife, mark surface of
mixture with lines to use as a guide for cutting. Leave in pan to cool
completely. Cut in squares, then lift out with a small spatula. Store in an
airtight container in a cool place for up to 1 week.
