My friend Christy passed this recipe along to me and I’ve made it twice now. She described it to me as tasting like a “big crumbly oatmeal cookie,” and she was right, but it’s oh so much more! It reheats well but we haven’t had to do much reheating since it’s gone in little more than one sitting! :)
The first time we made this we ate it all up plain. This time we took Christy’s suggestion and served it warm with milk and oh wow! When we added home-canned peaches it tasted like a cobbler! We had it for breakfast but it could just as easily have been dessert! Enjoy, and tell me if you like it!

Wow, that looks great! I’m going to have to give it a try. I love oatmeal for breakfast, and I think I’d love it even more as a “big crumbly oatmeal cookie!”
Yay, that's my recipe!
You should also try it with walnuts or pecans and dried cranberries baked into it sometime. Mm-mmm.
We gave his recipe to my in-laws, and recently it's become an EVERY MORNING kind of event for them. I think they kind of like it.
Have you seen that the crockpot lady also has a crockpot recipe for it that can be cut into bars once it's cooled? I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
How are ya, stranger?
