• 1 c rolled oats
• 1 stick butter
• 1 1/4 c boiling water
• 1 1/2 c honey
• 1 t cinnamon
• 1 t vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 1 3/4 c whole wheat flour
• 1 t baking soda
• 3/4 t salt

Put oats, butter & boiling water in large bowl and let set for 20 minutes. Add honey, vanilla and eggs. Add rest of ingredients, mix, and pour into greased and floured 9” x 13” pan. Bake 30 - 40 minutes at 350º. Excellent plain or iced with a caramel-coconut frosting (although I make it without the coconut.)
