I hit a Grand Slam!
Four foods, one week--all successful.
Our church festival was this weekend and I made treats for the bake sale. Wanting DD and DS to have something to choose, I made Pumpkin Raisin Bars with a 1-2-3 Gluten mix. Usually, I would have gotten the babes to help but we were short of time and I made them after bed. Then I snuck them to the bake sale table and we proceeded to shop. Our bars were at eye level and toddler reach so they each chose a baggie of Pumpkin Raisin Bars--and loved them!!!
It probably helps that I used real eggs in the mix, as we are now testing for eggs. No problem so far. And the pumpkin option is on the box--I added the raisins because they love them (well, DS does. DD has picked them out everytime, having changed her mind about raisins. She even once said "Pumpkin bar fixed now."). Like most GF baked goods, they were a little chewy (and like most bars, got a little soggy after 24 hours) but they had a better consistency than most (none of the usual graininess) and a great flavor.
At the end of the day, only one baggie had been sold--I wouldn't trust someone else either (even though I provided the box label and what I added to it)--so I purchased back the extra bags. And we had them for dinner. And breakfast. And probably lunch. :)
My team wins!
