I made these yesterday and loved them! I added dried blueberries (from my summer picking) and some lemon extract so I have lemon blueberry bars!
Thank you! I’m glad you like them and I love the blueberry and lemon flavor you made!
I made these today! I added in apple pie spice to mine and a little more salt. I cooked them for 20 min. They are kind of crumbly. Not sure if I needed to cook them a little longer? Also seemed a little on the dry side. Maybe it’s due to me putting in the apple pie spice? When I make these again, I think I’m going to double them.
I can’t find the nutritional information – so many ads
Love to make, but do need values!
Thanks!
