This 5 ingredient treat is a DREAM!

Whether I am wanting something to serve with breakfast, or just a little treat to go with coffee, this is a so easy to make that if unexpected guests stop by you can have these hot out of the oven by the time the coffee has brewed and is being poured.

One time I ended up with a whole house full of guests. I hadn’t been to the store for a few days and my cookie jar was totally empty.

Being resourceful, I quickly popped several pieces of bread into the toaster and and made cinnamon toast triangles! Not the classiest, but how can you go wrong with butter and cinnamon?

Oh how I wish I had a batch of these in the freezer! And if you are limited on space, you can always freeze a cup of cream and keep in the freezer so at least you have the ingredients on hand!
Kaylene said she also tried this with sugar free lemonade and it tasted great so for a lower calorie option I might have to give that a try.

This is what Kaylene of The Link Site says about her easy scone recipe.

They’re packed with fruit, simple to make, and you only need 5 ingredients!These Fruit Scones also freeze really well, so if you want to make up a big batch and then put some in the freezer you can! I hope you enjoy these fruit scones as much as my family and I do!

The post This Simple Scone Recipe is FABULOUS! Crowd Approved. appeared first on Urban Retro Recipes.

Remember the days when a snack was something your mom made from scratch? Time to get back to basics with this simple recipe.

Those were the days before high fructose corn syrup and partially hydrogenated oil was part of our vocabulary.

My mom would make individual sandwich baggies of trail mix and dried fruit and I remember the taste of her homemade fruit leather from our area’s farm fresh produce.

Today, convenience often trumps healthy alternatives. Being able to rip open a foil pouch is so much easier than making something from scratch. I think it boils down to what you want to feed your family.

Seriously, it is not practical to think that everyone is going to have time to sit down for a hot breakfast. One of these granola bars and a string cheese and you are fueled for your next adventure wherever that might take you.

Plus, for road trips or long hikes, this is something that is easy to take along. Actually, I think this might be a great snack to take on your next trip involving air travel! Not that I am ungrateful for the Tablespoon of Peanuts handed out, but having something a little more substantial would be nice for those trips where you are going to have a long flight followed by a lay-over.

Whatever the case may be..I hope you enjoy these as much as my family does!

I tried several different recipes before I found one that I knew my kids would love. Baking the first five ingredients before mixing made a huge difference in how the bars turned out.

Quick Tip: Feel Free to add in any of your favorite dried fruit combos such as dried pineapple, apple, mango, and dried cranberries.
