ReplyDeleteI would just like to say I made this recipe the other night, using gluten free flour and substituting the butter for coconut oil. It was so, so, so, juicy and delicious. It was a huge hit with my chef husband too! 5 star recipe!
ReplyDeleteLove this recipe. It has made it into our weekly rotation. We use wheat flour and use pam instead of the butter and it's still delicious (although I'm sure not as delicious as going full out :) Love it.
