This was like bread with pineapple in it. It needs splenda or sugar. Had to dump the whole thing. Sorry, didnt like it at all. Might play with it and add some splenda.

Enjoyed making these but think they needed something more, but not sure what! Perhaps a bit of coconut &/or some toasted pecans ~ Will have to try them that way another time! Believe me, these didn't go to waste, not around here, nor did they get stale ~ No time for that! [Tagged, made & reviewed in the Diabetes Awareness Tag Game]
