Description

This is a favorite of my family and we would usualy fix it for dinner for dessert and serve it warm with milk.
You can substitute whole wheat or whole spelt flour. With whole wheat use approx 1/4 c. less. This recipe is also good with less sugar for those that want to cut back. Enjoy! -Sovilla
