  1. I followed the conversion to double the recipe and it was a very dense thick batter, but I baked them anyways to see, but they turned out like some weird biscuits and didn’t rise. ☹️ I was so excited! Ugh lol I’ll have to try it again as a single batch maybe.

  2. Made this for snack for my daughter’s soccer team! They were a big hit! So easy and delicious! Will definitely make again.






  3. This recipe and your blueberry muffin recipes are so good! I plan on trying other recipes on this site too, but they all sound so good that it’s hard to choose which one I’ll try next. I followed the baking instructions for the blueberry muffins when I made these (bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Raise oven temperature to 400 and bake additional 10 minutes until golden brown) and they turned out great.
