enough wallowing....and facebooking!

Enough wallowing and dwelling on the past....time to make yummy mummy foods.

Since I am now financially independent, the budget has taken a severe overhaul.....as in every cent has to be accounted for and utilised. So my oven is getting a bit of a work out. NO MORE is my cupboard full of ready made toddler treats, and pre packaged snacks. This mummies oven has been getting a workout.

So, what is on the cards today? Well, Ava is heading off to her Daddies for Father's Day, so Mummy is going to use the peace and quiet! At the shops I picked up a massive (2 kg) bag of Oats for $1.99, so I think that oat biscuits are the flavour of the day. And maybe some scones? Outrageous!

Lets give this a try:

Rolled Oat Biscuits (apparently an old CWA recipe....which means it is bound to be good!)

Ingredients

2 cups of rolled oats
3/4 cup of Self Raising Flour
1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of butter (this will have to be nuttelex, as Ava is dairy intolerant)
1 tsp of honey/maple sryup/treacle (mine will be honey....I have some lovely wildflower honey in the cupboard)
1/2 tsp of bicarb soda
1/4 cup of chopped walnuts (sorry CWA, I am going to leave these out.)

Method

1. Mix all dry ingredients together
2. Dissolve Butter with 2 Tbsp of boiling water and the treacle and mix all together
3. Place out in Tbsp portions
4. Bake 230 C until brown. 

THEY ARE SOOOOOOO YUMMY..... nom nom nom.
