A playful spring favourite made with Rogers Large Flake Oats, baked into cookie “nests” with crisp edges and a chewy centre, then filled with colourful mini eggs for an easy Easter treat.
| 1. | Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin (butter or oil). |
| 2. | In a large bowl, mix Rogers Foods Large Flake Oats, Rogers Foods flour, baking powder, salt (and cinnamon if using). |
| 3. | In a separate bowl, whisk honey, melted butter, egg, milk (and vanilla if using). |
| 4. | Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until everything is well coated. |
| 5. | Rest the batter for 15 minutes so the oats absorb moisture and the mixture firms up. |
| 6. | Scoop into the muffin tin. Press firmly into each cup and up the sides to form a “nest” shape. |
| 7. | Bake 22–28 minutes, until deeply golden and set. |
| 8. | Remove from oven and let sit 3–4 minutes. Use the back of a teaspoon or a rounded measuring spoon; press the centre down gently to deepen the nest. |
| 9. | Return to the oven for 5 more minutes to set the shape. |
| 10. | Cool for about 5 minutes and then add 3 candy chocolate eggs to each nest. |
| 11. | Cool in the tin additional 10 minutes, then carefully lift out and cool completely on a rack. For extra crispness, let them sit at room temperature 30–60 minutes before storing. |
| 12. | Store in an airtight container. To keep them crisp, place a paper towel in the container and avoid sealing them while warm. |
