Please add 1 cup of water to the dry ingredients before turning on the stove! The recipe writer forgot to mention that 1 cup of water. Maybe this is good with a splash of Rice Dream, too? I omitted the nuts due to my allergies.

This recipe omits the necessary 1 cup of water or milk. You can’t make it without it.
Patricia Harris
Made exactally as instructed. Super dry….I ended up pouring some milk in the mix.

This is so good! Yum! I did add a couple of tablespoons of sugar so mine wasn’t as healthy as the author intended. Don’t skip the honey/coconut oil sauce. It makes the recipe.
