OK, so these "cookies" are supposed to be an easy way to get a healthy breakfast, according to Zonya. And, they definitely tasted "healthy". Not my favorite breakfast cookie. They seemed slightly dry and needed more moistness. It's a perfectly good recipe, but probably not one I'll be making again. Makes a LOT!
Mix together in a small bowl & set aside to soak for 10 mins.
