1 3/4 cups rolled oats

PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Let butter soften. Grind peanuts in food processor. Peel banana. Mash banana. Mash it good.
Use fork or whisk to mix flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in large bowl. Add butter, egg, rolled oats, and peanuts. Mix again with whisk or fork.
Drop 1 teaspoon of mixture from bowl onto sprayed cookie sheet. Use hands to roll mixture into a log. Repeat until mixture is used up. Makes about 4 dozen crunchy logs.
Bake crunchies in oven at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. Let cool on wire rack for 20 minutes.
TIDBITS
1)Nutmeg has a hallucinogenic effect if taken in large amounts.
2) This is why this recipe uses only 1/4 teaspoon. I want you to be able to drive safely.
3) But honestly officer, I only took a pinch of nutmeg.
4) Nutmeg loses its flavor and potency when ground. So if you must drive and nutmeg, please consume the ground variety. Think of your reputation. Think of your family.
5. Nutmeg goes well with desserts, fruit, spinach, cheese, pork, pumpkin, eggs, and cabbage. Sure, you’re just trying to get high. Pumpkin pie for dessert, a likely story.
6. Alabama cares about safe driving as well. You may not drive blindfolded there.
