Mix Saves the Day

When it's past noon and I still haven't decided what to put in the Sun Oven I know it's time to reach for a mix. This one from Calhoun Bend Mill for Cherry Oatmeal Crunch is pretty good, especially with unsweetened canned cherries. All you have to do is add butter (I used half butter and half applesauce) sprinkle it over the drained cherries, and bake. The instructions say to add some sugar to the cherries, but I don't. It's sweet enough without it.

Solar Baked Cherry Oatmeal Crunch

After reading a delightful sounding solar biscotti recipe a fellow blogger sent me I was in the mood for some baking. With no eggs, no nuts, and no chocolate in the house the biscotti would have to wait for another day. Luckily I had a stick of butter, a can of cherries and a mix. It turned out so good we ate half of it before I got a chance to take a picture.
