This recipe came from my grandma shortly before she passed away.. she had me make them for her on one of the last times I visited. They are very good, and I treasure the memory!! Her doctor wanted her to eat more fiber and a family member shared this recipe with her. I make them often as they are a nice snack to take in my lunch bag!! Not too sweet and very tasty! .. I think a bit of cinnamon in these would be good but I keep forgetting to try it ???????
