Fattening up my skinny bones Jones
So, as my loyal readers know, I have a little 19 month old on my hands with zero appetite who weighs barely anything 21 lbs 2 oz–under the 3rd percentile. I found this great recipe that he absolutely loves. It’s for homemade granola bars. Here’s the recipe.
2 cups oats
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup additives (raisens, chocolate chips, cranberries, almonds, whatever…)
Toast the oats at 400 degrees for about 5-10 minutes. Melt the peanut butter and honey over low heat in a saucepan, stirring continuously. (I added a little vanilla to the mixture for some flavor.) When the oats are done, add whatever additives you have chosen to the oats. (I picked graham crackers crushed and raisens.) Add peanut butter and honey mixture to oats. Line a pan with wax or parchment paper and pour mixture into it. Wait a few minutes to cool and then enjoy! JJ loved them and they’re full of healthy calories.
