I am not sure why, but my mom ever bought these, and I never knew them for my kids.
Without those memories, I don't feel the need to recreate the original. Although there are other things I would love to add to your "to do list" ;)
I have been thinking of other creative fillings. However, since I am trying to bake without wheat, would these be viable using half barley flour, and half oat flour? or all barley? Should I add the xanthan gum, or equivalent for cohesiveness, but since they do not rise, it seems like these would work for a non-wheat treat.
I was excited when I saw these, just because they seem workable to convert to non-wheat! Then I can create my own memory inducing treat!
Thanks for your help, Catie
Catie, these would be a challenge to make GF using the original recipe. Try our GF pie crust recipe for the crust; I think you'd have better success. Good luck - PJH
