2 Cups plus 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour, divided
1 Cup quick-cooking oats
3/4 Cup packed brown sugar
1/2 Cup butter, melted
1 8-oz pkg reduced fat cream cheese
1 14-oz can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
4 Egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 16-oz can whole-berry cranberry sauce

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar, and butter; mix until crumbly. Press 2 1/2 cups of the crumb mixture into a greased 13x9 baking dish. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the milk, egg whites, vanilla and remaining flour. Spoon over crust. In a small bowl, combine cranberry sauce and cornstarch. Spoon over cream cheese layer. Sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack before cutting.
