Morning Rounds (Ozery) – homemade

Recipe

Our family loves the Ozery Morning Rounds we get at Natural Grocers.  Two members of the family have one of these every single morning.  So, that expensive bag of six goes pretty quickly.  On top of that, I cringe at the plastic bag waste, even though I always add it in with our plastic bag recycling.  For way too many months (years?) I told myself I’d look for a copycat recipe, but for some reason I just put up this weird resistance to it.  I half-heartedly looked a few times, but it remained a permanent fixture on every to-do list I wrote.

Until finally, one day, I just did it.  I found a recipe.  I tried it.  It worked.  Simple as that.

You can find a written version of the recipe in the “more” or arrowed section below the video.  This most recent time making these I used a little bit of white flour in place of part of the wheat (maybe 1/4 cup white, 3/4 cup wheat), simply because our previous batch had come out a bit tougher than I would have liked.  I also add a lot more apples and currants than asked for.  I did try to use the same recipe with gluten-free flour, and that did NOT work for me…  But the original recipe works great and is pretty darn simple to make.  Now that I’m more confident in the recipe, and because of our family’s high consumption of these, I will probably stick to a double or triple batch in the future.
