Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large bowl thoroughly mix the flour, sugar, salt, oats and butter. Line a 9X9 baking pan with parchment paper and place half of the oat mixture on top. Using the back of a water glass press the oat mixture evenly to form the bottom layer of your bars.
Next place your guava slabs on top, lining them next to each other. Top the guava with the remaining oat mixture, lightly pressing to form the top of the bars. Bake for 40 minutes and let rest for at least 15 minutes.
Cut into your desired shape and drizzle with sweetened condensed milk!
