  3. Wow ... tasty and hearty! I made only half and substituted maple syrup for honey ... they turned out really well and made a great "second breakfast" this morning ! Just wondering if you can clarify the amount of oats that are required ... the ingredients list says 1 1/4 cups but the directions say 1 cup. Anyway, this recipe is a keeper!
