Thanks a million for sharing this. I just made some oat bran muffins last night and was wondering what I could use the rest of the bagfull for...here it is!
ReplyDeleteI want one of these right now to finish my coffee off with! Love the idea of dates in these...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love your new top pic.
ReplyDeleteHave used several of your recipes and love them. Keep up the good cooking.
Now that's a great combination and one I've not seen often. I'll have to try these. I do like using oat bran - but it's usually in buns or muffins.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your new picture in the header! So much fun to "see" your faces.
