Dear Cinnamon Oat Cookies:
BAKE FASTER. I am waiting to eat you, and I am running out of patience.
Love,
Melissa
P.S. – The recipe.
1 cup oil (because some of us around here can’t eat butter, even if others of us think butter is tasty.)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup flour (I used spelt, but any old kind will do.)
1/2 cup wheat germ (so we can pretend they’re Healthy Cookies. Ha ha ha ha.)
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
Combine oil & sugars.
Beat in the egg & vanilla.
Add oats, flour, wheat germ, cinnamon, & salt.
Drop onto cookie sheet.
Bake at 350deg F for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
Eat. And eat. And eat and eat and eat. Maybe with ice cream.








Now I need a cookie….preferably baked by you.
Everything is better baked by someone else, don’t you think? By someone else, in someone else’s kitchen, so that it’s someone else’s dishes to wash…
Yes. I agree with you. And I’m talking to you, Kitch. And to you, too, Melissa. So I’ll call up Jen and she’ll bake the cookies. Cause why? She loves baking and we love her and well, that’s just enough.
Oh. And her man can do the dishes. Or we can just throw them out with the dirty diapers.
Yum – these sound delicious! I bet it will make my house smell so nice when they’re baking. Good find!
