I made a mistake while preparing, i mixed oats, brown sugar and butter at once. So after mixing, could not get the binding consistecy. After baking too, it could not bind. What can i do in this situation?
It was so delicious,lightly chewy, crunchiness of oats too good. Children cannot stop them to have this .
Can we use normal powdered sugar instead of brown sugar?
