These are sooooo good!!I made these this morning...and I am having one while I write this review. They have a wonderful texture, and flavour. I had to switch up the yogurt, all I had was sour cream. We love cranberries and I usually try to incorporate flax meal into my baking. Thank you for sharing. I will definately be making these again.
