This recipe is great as is, or as many others have indicated is easy to adapt to your taste, creativity, or just to whatever you have on hand. I first made these just after delivering my son. I was nursing and wanted to have something quick to eat that wasn't processed, would be nutritious, and would also "keep things movin'" (if you know what I mean!) I always use whole wheat flour, add whole and/or ground flax seed to increase the fiber, and decrease the amount of brown sugar. For a chocolate version, I substitute molasses (high in vitamins) for the honey, replace 1/2 cup of the flour with Ovaltine (also high in vitamins) and some powdered cocoa mix and add mini-chocolate chips instead of raisins. Nutritiously decadent!
