I know, it looks great doesn't it??? It tastes even better. These are 100% home made and are a great snack for the whole family. I made them this morning. It only took about 5 minutes. They cooked for 30 minutes and right after I took them out of the oven to cool, we headed to the pool. I had a friend meet us there today with her 4 kids. Jason has the week off so he had fun with the big kids in the big pool and Eve and I hung out with the babies in the kiddie pool. We chatted with some other neighbors that live around us and had a great time. As soon as we headed home, exhausted, sunburned and famished, we had a nice treat waiting to be eaten. This will most certainly make our list of regular snacks. Below is a copy of the recipe. I highly recommend them. Its so quick and easy, you'll be shocked you didn't think of this yourself. Enjoy!!!P.s.... Elizabeth said YES!!! Jason and I are headed out tomorrow night. So excited!!

oh those look yummy I will have to try them maybe with some apple jam, I love oatmeal wonder if I can throw some choc chips in that lol!
ReplyDeleteCool - I will try it for sure! Do you think I could substitute Jam for just frozen berries??? I get really nervous messing with recipes because I'm not that good of a cook!!! Ha, ha! I like what Leah said about adding chocolate chips! I recently added chocolate chips to my banana bread - but it didn't cook normally! O-well - I think I will just save the chocolate chips and eat them plain! Yummy!
