This is a recipe which believe it or not I got in the 7th grade during home ec. It is a really easy and great snack. I recommend it for all ages and also as a kid-friendly recipe. ** I have made changes to this recipe to make it easier to follow....I apologize for any confusion! Let me know if it happens again! Ingredients:
3 cups oatmeal (either quick oats or old fashioned, they both work well) |
1/3 cup coconut (may be ommitted) |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
3 tablespoons honey |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup raisins (may be ommitted) |
Directions:
1. Pour oatmeal into a glass microwaveable dish and cook for two minutes; stirring once. (YES microwave the oats! I'm not sure why, but this is how I learned to do it in my 7th grade home ec class and it has worked for me every time).
2. Combine all other ingredients into a bowl.
3. Add in oatmeal.
4. Stir until well blended.
5. To finish, use either the microwave or oven. Both methods are listed below -
6. Microwave method: Pour mixture into a glass dish and microwave on high for 4 minutes or until golden brown.
