I was looking for a reasonably healthy treat to make for lunch boxes for the kids first day of school and this one fit the bill very well. I sized the recipe up by 1.5 so that it would fit into a 9x9 square pan and substituted 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour for part of the white. I also used 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda instead of 3/8 teaspoon (the funky measurement given when I sized the recipe up) but other than that I made the recipe exactly as listed (reserved 3/4 cup of oat/flour mixture because the upsizing doesn't change the directions in the recipe. It is very tasty and just perfect for a special treat for a boxed lunch!

I am a married stay at home mom (former teacher) with two little girls. I enjoy cooking but love baking even more! (My husband certainly doesn't complain!) All the girls in my family and I all enjoy exchanging recipes and trying them out on our families. Taste of Home and Betty Crocker were my original kitchen/recipe resources - now I am a Zaar-aholic! I love trying out new recipes and my family does too! It brings me great joy and is a personal goal of mine to be able to offer a meal or a treat to any guest that comes in my door.
