Ingredients

    - 1 & 3/4 cups oat flour (or ground-up rolled oats)

    - 1 tsp. vanilla

    My extra ingredients:

    - 1/3 cup combo of chopped pistachios and pumpkin seeds
    - about 1.5 tsp of orange zest

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

1. Sift together the oat flour, baking soda, and salt.
