Recipe Reviews
Easy to make, easy to eat, easy to store.
Tasty, very, very tasty
Oh dear what a strange recipe, neither of the oat layers set leaving you with much the same texture as before put into the oven. Followed every step to the word so think the originator needs to fine tune. What a waste of time and money, truvia is a very costly product.
