Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
Thanks for the recipe! Just found your site! Just a quick question…do you think this would work with oat or even whole wheat four with flax meal for the egg?
The flour should be fine. My friend who has egg issues says yes on the flax seed. You can also use applesauce about the same size as the egg in a pinch.
Never in the question …I see that the answer after watching video again. But really thanks for the recipe 😢😢😢😢😬
