Thank you for this! When I was a little girl my mother would sometimes makes these for breakfast either plane, or with banana or chopped apple on them. They were my favorite breakfast! As an adult I had been trying to find something that tasted like her recipe ( which she lost a long time ago and now does bye feel I guess). Anyway these taste just like I remember them tasting! They taste great plain, and it’s also a nice basic recipe for doing add ins if I feel like being fancy one morning. My now two-year-old little boy loves these!
I’m so glad you found this recipe and that they are similar to your mom’s recipe! Thanks for your comment Theresa!
