Join the discussionHi Lisa, great recipe! My baby is due in March and this would be a great recipe for noshing while nursing, so I just mixed two bags of dry ingredients together and labelled to add a banana + 1/3c of pumpkin purée to each. One always wants to have easy cooking on hand with a newborn around, but you have energy in the second trimester and then not a lot in the third until the nesting pre-labour frenzy begins (at least that’s true for me). So thanks, you solved my problem of cooking healthy food in advance with this recipe! Hope this might inspire someone else too.
Adding to say I didn’t add liquid vanilla extract because it’s not available here in Belgium, but vanilla-flavoured sugar is so it’s a dry ingredient. Those using vanilla extra might want to put that on the wet ingredients to add label.
Best of luck with baby! Stocking your freezer before baby comes is essential! Keep us posted!
I just started with OAMM, and I wanted to test out a few recipes before my big cooking day to make sure they were palatable. I made these last night, and they are super yummy. HOWEVER, there was no way this recipe would make an 8×8 pan of bars. I put it in the pan, and immediately realized it wasn’t going to work. I made a second batch and combined it with the first (so I ended up doubling the recipe), and that was perfect for an 8×8 pan. Just wanted to let you guys know!
Thank you Amanda for sharing this information with us! I am passing along to our recipe developers to make the necessary adjustments!
