Great for BREAKFAST-ON-THE-GO Too. I love this recipe ~ the major trick is to refrigerate the dough for 8 hrs ~ softens the oatmeal and makes it that much more delicious

These are my favorite! I love them, and I have never seen them with cinnamon, I'll bet it is a good taste.

They are ~ it gives it a hidden little zing and it helps with a delicious aftertaste after you bite into them.
