Ingredients
  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 2 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar

Instructions
1
Heat a small saucepan over low heat and melt 9 tablespoons of butter; then combine the melted butter with oats.
2
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow it to cool, approximately 20 minutes.
3
In a large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, and baking powder; then stir in the oat-date mixture.
4
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease a baking sheet with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.

Using a spoon, create small mounds of the oat-date mixture, spaced 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
