It’s National Oatmeal Day.  So, I thought I would try a something new for breakfast. Altering an oatmeal cookie recipe, I came up with something really tasty:

Oatmeal Breakfast Cannoli

1/3 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup oatmeal

1/2 cup whipped cream cheese
1/4 cup carmel sauce
Apple, thinly sliced

Cuisinart Crepe/Pizzelle Press

While preheating the Pizzelle Press, mix together the first seven ingredients to make the cannoli batter.  Place one Tablespoon of batter on each spot of the Pizzelle plate of a baker. Close the cover and cook for 2 minutes. When done, remove the the pizzelle from the press with a heatproof spatula.  Immediately wrap around a dowel to form the cannoli shells.  Allow to cool.  Meanwhile, mix the cream cheese and caramel sauce.  Spoon sauce inside each shell.  Add apple slices and enjoy!
