Good. Going to try adding other things
Amazing!! I followed the recipe exactly and I can’t believe how good they are! I was worried about the texture with only using flaxseed meal but they were perfect. I used 3 large very ripe bananas and a Fuji apple. I’ll be making these regularly.
I SUBSTITUTED STEVIA FOR THE WHITE SUGAR, AS I AM DOING LOW CARB AND HUBBY HAS HIGH BLOOD SUGAR. THE TEXTURE IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE NO FLOUR IS USED BUT STILL YUMMY!!!!
Very delicous! My son and I loved them! Everything was perfect, no changes necessary.
