    Has the potential to be very good. My one mistake was on the 2nd 30 minutes(or until lightly brown) in the oven... I didn't keep my eye on it and did not check it until after 20 minutes and it was all burned. Only advice! Keep an eye on it!! Could be really Yummy!!! - 4/17/13

    This looks delicious! Unfortunately I really do not like coconut. I assume I could substitute almond oil for coconut oil? Any substitutions for the coconut flakes? I am watching my carbs so obviously oatmeal is out. Any ideas you could give me would be awesome. Thank you! - 12/31/15
