1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Layer an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, letting the paper hang over the sides. Set aside.
2

Begin with the oat layer by combining the oats, flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and sugar in a medium-size mixing bowl.
3

In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter and milk.
4

Add egg mixture to oat mixture, and stir until well combined. Transfer 1/2 cup of the oat mixture to a small bowl, and set aside.
5

Place the remaining oat mixture into the prepared baking dish, and press down to make a solid crust. Set aside.
6

Make the strawberry-yogurt layer by combining the strawberries, yogurt, egg, and flour in a medium-size mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.
7

Pour the yogurt mixture over the oat base and spread into one even layer. Sprinkle the reserved oat layer on top evenly.
8

Bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the yogurt layer is set and the oat layer is golden brown. Let cool completely, then lift from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into eight bars.
