Get the latest Oaty flavored recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/oaty Inspired by a post on Baking Bites for an equally delicious sounding oatmeal streusel cookie (http://bakingbites.com/2009/0 1/oatmeal-streusel-cookies/), I made these gingery, chewy cookies for a teacher of mine with morning sickness. http://www.grouprecipes.com/107673/double-ginger-oatmeal-cookies.html What do you make for a chocolate freak who's allergic to dairy, nuts and soy? Any chcolate except unsweetened is out because of the lethicin, and butter, coconut oil and most shortening is off the books too! Well, I got creative, and busted out the black beans! My initial batch had mixed reviews because of the banana flavour, so I used a rather interesting blend of ingredients in this batch - flaxseed, apple butter and an egg as well. Add rich, dark-roast coffee and bitter chocolate too and you've got a winner! http://www.grouprecipes.com/107672/jr-jrs-brownie-bars.html These slice and bake cookies are tender, crumbly and rich - their tiny size is misleading! Rolled oats and dark brown sugar bring a great earthiness to the dough, and the bittersweet chocolate is a refreshing change to your usual cookie! http://www.grouprecipes.com/107326/oats-and-chocolate-shortbread.html Yes, the ingredient list is long-winded and rather complex looking, but it’s mostly just the plethora of different grains and seeds that go into these delicious, chewy cookies! The nuts, grains and seeds add a touch of crunch and a whole other texture to the traditional “oatmeal” cookie, not to mention a whack of nutrition! The dough must rest overnight to absorb all the liquid and prevent it from flattening during baking. http://www.grouprecipes.com/107029/supergrain-cookies-with-nuts-and-fruit.html An unlikely cast of characters here - black beans, blackened bananas, stevia extract and no flour! Don't be put off by the weird list, though -these things are fudge to the extreme and absolute heaven on a plate. http://www.grouprecipes.com/106743/black-on-black-brownies.html Yes, it's pumpkin pie bread, or sweet potato/apple bread if you use my other recipe, so you may think this is a Fall-only treat. Think again! A handful of fresh berries means that this is perfect Summer fare, and you can use frozen bounty for after the leaves turn. http://www.grouprecipes.com/104093/clash-of-the-seasons-quickbread.html Rich buttermilk scones filled with almonds, walnuts and chocolate chips aren't too sweet, but they are decadently tender with almost a mysterious aura from the mesquite flour tucked inside. http://www.grouprecipes.com/103167/nutty-mesquite-oatmeal-scones.html The best of every sandwich you could ever ask for! A slice of this crazy banana and oatmeal quickbread, made moist with yogurt, encompasses a body spiked with peanut butter and a ribbony filling of jam! Use your favourite flavour jam for these, or go the extra decadent route and make it with a ribbon of pie filling instead! Makes 2 loaves of about 12 slices each. http://www.grouprecipes.com/102496/pb-n-j-banana-bread.html While cleaning out our overburdened upstairs freezer (to make way for more ice cream!) I happened upon several small bags of fruit that I had frozen last year when we couldn't eat any more of it fresh! Plums, peaches, cherries and a banana stuff a flaxseed, barley and oatmeal batter for a delicious taste of Summer all year. http://www.grouprecipes.com/100582/freezer-haul-quickbread.html These muffins found their way into a goodie bag I put together for my favourite hairstylist the last time I went for a cut - tender buttermilk, rolled oats and delicious Summery cherries make for a perfect coffee-break treat. Makes 7 jumbo or 14 regular muffins. http://www.grouprecipes.com/98692/ranier-and-oatmeal-muffins.html
