I don’t know how I missed this one. These would do nicely in a gift basket. Grew up on Oatmeal, and still like it.

Quote:im wondering what kind of container i could put them in so they look nice, besides ziplocs… maybe saran wrap with a bow?party favor bags work really good for this and they are decorative, just make sure you twist them tight so nothing spills out of the bag.

Thank you for this recipe. I made the maple and brown sugar variation. I get about 7 servings for this, which works good for a week.
I can’t wait for snack time tomorrow!

this is a fabulous idea, especially for camping and such. I am so going to make these. I have a dehydrator so I am always drying fruit. Why have I not thought of this before? Thanks a bunch!
