These aren't exactly healthy, but I did use whole wheat flour and butter (instead of margarine). Hope you like 'em.
We liked 'em!! I'm going to go up and grab a glass of milk and another one! Thanks for the food tonight! It was all yummy. The kids thought the bread was the best part!
I made these last night, and Matt and I both loved them! That's saying something since Matt won't go anywhere near oatmeal!
