Oh’s! in the kitchen usually aren’t a good thing.  They happen when you notice a pot boiling over, get splattered with bacon grease, or come home to find that your boyfriend’s dog got into a bag of groceries you forgot to put away and is now covered head to toe in cornstarch and smashed raspberries (yes it happened, and unfortunately I was too pissed off at the time to grab my camera and take a picture because someday I would find the whole thing funny).

There is one kind of Oh! that is good in the kitchen, and it comes by the box.

I LOVE this cereal.  It is my absolute favorite, which kind of sucks because sometimes it can be hard to find.  I don’t know why every store don’t carry TONS of this stuff, cause I’d buy it!  The sweet, crunchy little circles always hit the spot, so when I saw that my Dollar General had some, I did a little happy dance.

And then I bought some.

And then I made muffins with Oh’s topping.

Oh yeah.

First I made a batch of honey oat muffins with the Oh’s topping.  They were okay, but not the flavor I was going for.  Then my boyfriend suggested I make a banana muffin.  So I turned to my trusty internet to find a good banana muffin recipe and I found what I was looking for on Food.com.

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.  After muffins have baked for about 5 minutes, remove muffins from the oven, add topping, then put muffins back in the oven for the remaining bake time.

The muffin has a nice density which balances perfectly with the crunchy topping.  They were delicious, but pose one problem – do I have a muffin for breakfast tomorrow, or a bowl of Oh’s?!  Decisions, decisions…

* I have to give a quick shout out to Jess at On Sugar Mountain for sharing her tip of using scrapbook paper for picture backgrounds.  A wonderfully useful tip AND a recipe for Chocolate Dipped Potato Chip Cookies all in the same spot?!  Thanks Jess!  As you can see, I grabbed a few packs of scrapbook paper and am already having a blast with it!
