2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1/2 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup raisins OR chopped dates OR dried cranberries OR fresh blueberries

Preheat oven to 350F.
In a large bowl, mix together the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.  Beat in milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla extract.  Stir in your choice of yummies.  Spread into a 9×13  pan.

Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Cut into bars or scoop into bowl.

Coffee Bars

I love going into Starbucks and seeing those great treats they have in the case. Well this is a nice coffee bar recipe you can make right at home and serve for breakfast with a nice cup of coffee or tea. It is also great as a snack or dessert. These are quick and easy to make. Now you have something to do with that leftover coffee in the morning.

Coffee Bars

2 C Brown Sugar

1 C oil

1 tsp Baking powder

1 C warm Coffee

2 eggs

3 C Flour

1 tsp salt

1 Bag Chocolate chips

Line Jelly roll pan with aluminum foil. Mix together sugar, oil coffee and eggs. In separate bowl mix together flour, baking soda and salt. Add dry mixure slowly to wet mixture and mix well. Spread into Jelly roll pan (12×9). Sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool and cut into squares.  If you would like these thicker you can make in 9×9 pan!
