Usually when you find a great recipe, you shouldn’t mess with it. Why risk ruin a good thing?
But sometimes you’re just a little too curious; a little too bored with the same ol’ thing. And by you of course I mean me.
I’m not gonna say I made this any better- they most certainly did not need improving. I just made a new variety- and variety means I get to eat them more often.
Mama Pea’s fabulous oatmeal cookie cupcakes gone orange:
I replaced half the water with freshly squeezed orange juice, and cut back on the cinnamon just a little bit so it didn’t over power the orange flavor. I saved a little bit of juice for the icing, then topped them off with a little bit of orange zest.
Just enough tang to make them a tiny bit different, yet still just as good.
We’re already down to 2….
Sounds like a good breakfast to me- I mean, it’s oatmeal after all, right?!
Do you leave recipes alone or do you change them each time you make them?
