I was out of eggs so used egg substitute.. they came out a bit gummy lol I am going to try this again with real eggs - the batter was so good..... i was thinking something tart like cranberries may even be good in this one.

These were great- so moist! I will add salt in the future because I think it needed a little balance in the flavor. Thanks for sharing!

These are wonderfully quick to make and taste absolutely delicious! They are good for packing in the kids' lunchboxes; but, rarely ever make it to school, because the children gobble them up so fast.
