EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Quick-cooking and old-fashioned rolled oats are interchangeable unless recipes call for a specific type. Instant oatmeal products are not the same as quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats and should not be used for baking—you will get gummy or mushy results.

For 3 grams of fat and 95 calories per serving, substitute unsweetened applesauce for the shortening and 1/2 cup fat-free cholesterol-free egg product for the eggs. Increase cinnamon and vanilla to 1 1/2 teaspoons each.

Press dough in ungreased 13x9-inch pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until light brown. Cool in pan on cooling rack. For 36 bars, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows.

I was too lazy to do the whole drop-cookie thing with multiple rounds of cookie sheets in the oven so made the "squares" version of these in a 8x8x2 pan for 25 min. and they came out perfect! That was the recommended pan/time in my old Betty cookbook. I followed recipe ingredients as is. Chewy, delicious and moist with that slight crunch on the top. Thank you Betty!

I made this recipe after having a total flop of a recipe from another "kitchen" during Christmas....my husband and I loved this recipe - I added some shaved carrots as well to give it a carrot cake taste. It was fast, easy and very much enjoyed by my family. Thank you.
