PEEPS® Crumbly Christmas Bars

 

PEEPS® Crumbly Christmas Bars –  Barras de Avena para Navidad con PEEPS®    

 

Hello December!  I’m still in turkey mode and December is here -WOW!  Today I plan to lug all my Christmas decorations out of the garage, head out to buy a tree and slowly begin the process of untangling all those pesky Christmas lights – ugh.  But first I’m baking up a double batch of these crumbly oatmeal bars bursting with PEEPS®.

When PEEPS® contacted me to create a Holiday recipe for their Advent Calendar, which will feature daily crafts and recipes to spread Christmas cheer I knew I had to spruce up my oatmeal bars.  I added a layer of peeps between the crust and topping; baked until golden, sliced and served warm with a tall glass of milk.

I plan to use these festive bars to encourage- motivate everyone to help me decorate for the Holidays.
