These must be refrigerated. The first time I made them I did not refrigerate them, and they went rancid pretty quickly.

Easy recipe! Kinda like an oatmeal pancake. Not super sweet. I i topped then with butter and honey.

Almond milk? Do you buy the one from the store? I tried it, then read that we weren’t supposed to eat the stuff in it either. 🙁 BUmmed b/c the taste was doable for me.

Could you make bake and then freeze this for later? I think this would be great for Christmas.

I found your website from From Scratch magazine and am so excited! Our 4 yo. son is allergic to wheat, dairy, egg, corn syrup, and acidic fruits. It has been so hard to find recipes that don’t have any of those things that are “treats”. I printed out your Breakfast Bars, and your Graham Crackers recipes and can’t wait to make them both! What a treat for him to be able to have something new for breakfast, and to be able to use the Graham Crackers recipe to cut out Christmas cookies for the first time! God Bless you!

Also, you use sucanat in a lot of your recipes. I was wondering if I can substitute white or brown sugar for that. I live in a small town, and am not sure I’d be able to find it locally. I know you can get it online, but if I don’t have to, (for frugality reasons), I’d rather not.
Thanks again!
