This was amazing. I tweaked a few things since the hubs is a body builder but this great for an after workout snack. I did half wheat flour half white, added cinnamon (1 TBS +), nixed the chocolate chips and just used 2 cups of raisins, for the ricotta i used about 75% fat-free and 25% part skim and finally i used splenda for all the sugar (white and brown). I can't wait to experiment with peanutbutter, pumpkin and bananas. Great base thanks a bunch!
