How to Make Maple Crunch Drumsticks

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine in a 13x9 inch baking pan in the preheated oven.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat 2 large eggs with 1/4 cup pure maple syrup.
In a large paper bag, combine 1 1/2 cups rolled oats and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Dip 8 chicken drumsticks into the egg and syrup mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
Place the coated drumsticks in the paper bag with the oats and shake until evenly coated.
Arrange the coated drumsticks in a single layer in the melted margarine in the prepared baking pan.
Spoon some of the melted margarine over each drumstick.
Bake uncovered at 375°F (190°C) for 60-70 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Serve immediately and enjoy!
