The baking has started at my house. If you know where I live, come on over. Just kidding. Call first. Actually, the bulk of the baking will start this weekend.
I did take today as an opportunity to make some granola bars, however. There was only 1 left in the drawer and I was going to need a few more than 1 to get Lance through the week for packed dinners and snacks at Day Camp. One granola bar was NOT going to cut it. I really did not want to go buy any more.
Time to start baking them again…
M&M granola bars! Discovered that the bags of Mini M&Ms I found only have enough in there for a single full batch. I only had 1 bag. I was going to have to dispose of the rest of the M&Ms some how. Darn.
Orange Cranberry & Cinnamon granola bars! I had some orange flavored dried cranberries that Ben picked out a while back. There was just over a cup left. I did have to chop them up smaller but I threw all of them in. I added 2 heaping teaspoons of cinnamon.
I was going to make other varieties, but alas my baking was put on hold as I ran out of honey and rice krispie cereal. I am thinking I might try it with some pretzel sticks next time. The kids would enjoy that.
The next challenge: oatmeal breakfast bars.
