This is the exact recipe we use! I love them. In place of the one cup of oil though, we use 3/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup oil. These are great--and the fact that the batter lasts so long is a great benefit! Update hint: You can use whole wheat flour in place of some of the white flour (I used 3 cups whole wheat flour). They're quite good!
