Blueberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars
After going to bed at 5:00 AM (maybe a little after...) it sucks to wake up. Especially when you have to wake up to the sun searing through your eyelids. But, to make matters even better, I woke up with the urge to bake. Usually, this would be a joyful way for me to wake up, but having used the last egg last night...I mean...earlier in the day ::COUGH:: AT 2:00AM ::COUGH:: it was one of those, "OHHH CRAP" moments. Do I go buy another carton of eggs even though I'm leaving for Norcal tomorrow, or do I just NOT BAKE? What a dilemma!
So what did I do? I opened my "BAKING BLOGS" folder in Firefox and began to browse through the pretty pictures and recipes hoping that an EGGLESS recipe would surface. AND ALAS! ONE DID! W00T! And for more awesomeness, it was a recipe that involved Oatmeal and Blueberries, two things that I've been trying to get rid of. =] It was a recipe from BakingBites (heavenly awesome world of food. Major props!) But I didn't have brown sugar...what a shame. BUT THAT WASN'T GOING TO STOP ME! I used plain white sugar, sprinkled in some Cinnamon and the results weren't half bad. They lacked the great taste from the brown sugar, but I think the Cinnamon was a nice addition to help compensate.
The picture sucks but there's not much I can do about that. My friends don't own pretty plates and it's really a task to find a clean area big enough to take a dang picture of what I baked...::SIGH:: At least they have flour and sugar for me to use! (YAY!!!) It sucks they're moving out. This has been CakeShot's headquarters for the last couple of months...::TEAR:: Aww the memories...
