• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

4. Place flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt into a large bowl. Slowly add to wet ingredients.
5. Stir in Oreos until just combined.
6. Scoop dough into 16 very mini loaf pans or 2 bread pans that have been sprayed with cooking spray. Muffin tins would work great too.
