(I used almond milk) 1 stick of butter 1/4 cup flaxseed 1 tablespoon genuine brewers yeast 1 teaspoon vanilla (I used almond since I used almond milk) 1/2 cup organic creamy peanut butter 3 cups organic old fashioned oats Package of organic dried cranberries In a sauce pan on medium heat combine sugar, coco powder, milk, butter, flaxseed and yeast. Stir occasionally until it starts to boil. Once boiling stir continuously for 1-3 minutes. Then take off heat. Add vanilla/almond and peanut butter. Stir until smooth. Then add your oats and dried berries. Place spoonfuls onto parchment paper until set (15 minutes) And enjoy. Your little one will also enjoy later.
