Recipe Created By: Carrie Black

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups boiling water

1 cup quick cooking oats

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup white sugar

1/2 cup shortening or oil

2 eggs or equivalent replacement

1 1/3 cup wheat or oat flour

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

Directions

Boil water and pour over oats. Let cool. Cream together sugars and shortening. Add eggs.

Sift (oat flour really needs to be sifted) in dry ingredients. Add oats.

Bake in a 9×13-inch pan at 350 °F for 30 minutes.

Notes

Oat flour works really well.

Substitutions

Can sub a safe oil for the shortening.

Any egg replacer will probably work well.

Egg Substitutions: There are many egg-free products and foods available to make your recipes free of eggs. Find out more about egg substitutions.

Gluten: Gluten is a protein found in specific grains (wheat, spelt, kamut, barley, rye). Other grains are naturally gluten-free but may have cross-contact with gluten-containing grains. Look for certified gluten-free products if you need to avoid gluten. Find out more about wheat and gluten substitutions.

Milk and Soy Substitutions: Alternative dairy-free milk beverages and products will work in most recipes. Find out more about milk substitutions and soy substitutions.
