Lovely breakfasts! Great hostess. (My guests don't always get my best work first thing in the a.m.)

I just tried this recipe for the first time. I used Sucanat instead of regular sugar and it has a wonderful flavor! Thanks!

I know that substituting this many eggs would be difficult but do you think it;d work? And if so what could I sub 4 eggs with? My daughter is allergic to both eggs and wheat.

We are lucky that my husband is a winemaker and home brewer. We trade wine and beer for haircuts, duck and duck fat and farmer's market veggies and fruit. We also let a friend with a farm keep two freezers in our garage, and in exchange we get lamb, pork, goat and beef. I have a backyard flock of chickens for eggs, but for some reason I tend to give them away... It's the same with my baked and canned items... I wonder who wants to trade some more?

This is such a great idea. I love baking breads, cookies, muffins, etc. and it would be such fun to trade with people for stuff they love to make, or grow. I will have to be on the lookout for some chicken owners around here! Thanks for the idea.

I'm going to try this with some of my green tomatoes from Johnson's Backyard Garden!

I have this in the oven right now! I subbed millet flour for the sorghum and used up some blueberry jam from last year that didn't gel up as much as I wanted. It looks and smells amazing -- can't wait for it to finish baking. :)

Wow this looks so tasty! I find I'm often underprepared for my after dinner sweet tooth cravings for chocolate or ice cream. This looks like an easy and delicious alternative – will have to make!
