I updated my recipe for Peanut Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies.

I've decided that packing the peanut butter powder into the measuring cup gives me even MOAR peanut butter flavor, which means I need the whole 3 tablespoons of water now.

I finally tried the variation I suggested and found that 1/4 cup of dried cherries, sliced in half, works beautifully to create a Peanut Butter & Jelly Breakfast Cookie, especially if you're eating them warm from the oven and the cherries are kind of melty inside. It's just like jam!

I'm also beginning to suspect that the PB powder used in the original recipe had salt and sugar in it, and while I'm okay with the sweetness level of this as a breakfast cookie, I needed more salt, so I've been putting in 1/2 teaspoon, which I mention in the notes.

This is not actually a functional recipe, but they taste amazing. If anybody has any ideas on how to improve these, I'm all ears. More under the cut.

So I decided to make gluten-free muesli bars. I wanted them to be no-bake and I knew I wanted all my favourite things in it, but no recipe online had what I needed, so I just... Put Stuff In A Bowl, essentially.

Ingredients:
250g macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
100g brazil nuts, chopped
150g 4 seed mix (pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, golden flax)
100g dried cranberries
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 cup gf oats
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup golden syrup
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp salt
about 100g dark (70%) chocolate

I also made my gluten-free crackers again and have updated the post.
