Peanut Butter Breakfast Bars With Leftover Oatmeal
I posted this at my breakfast blog, but decided I would post it here, too.
My kids are not big oatmeal fans, but I feel like we should have it at least once a week, especially since it's so nutritious and cheap. I would love to be able to have it more often. I was delighted when I came across this recipe for using leftover oatmeal.
Peanut Butter Bars With Leftover Oatmeal
2 c. leftover oatmeal
1/2 c. butter or coconut oil, softened
1 c. sweetener (or 1/2 c. honey, just watch that it doesn't get the batter too moist)
1 egg
1 c. whole grain flour
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 c. peanut butter
1 t. vanilla
Cream butter, sweetener and eggs in a bowl. Add oatmeal and other ingredients. Mix well. Spread into a greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 350 for about 25 minutes. Cool and cut.
This can also be served hot in bowls with milk on top.
