One handed baking & a blackbird

Yesterday I found a recipe for a fat free treat. It mostly consists of oat bran. Looking at the recipe I figured I could give it shot with one hand. And, firstly, I’d like to just say that they looked perfect when they emerged from the oven.

Oat bran cookies

They still looked good when I popped them out of the muffin tray. Given there’s no fat involved at all, there was remarkably little left in the tray.

In fact, the only thing wrong with these lovely looking cookies is that they are so bland, you’d be better off eating cardboard. Mirinda’s verdict amounted to “smother them with jam and cream and they’d work.” I have to agree but would go one step further and suggest the jam and cream without the cookies.

There’s a few Indian sweets I’m quite keen on trying but they’ll have to wait for my cast to come off.

Watching me

Just as I was about to take a photo of the supa-blando cookies, I spotted this blackbird having a wash in the bird bath. I think he’s a bit concerned that I might try and give him the crumbs.
