• . >Tips: * Half the flour amount can be replaced by a whole wheat flour. OR...Note> GLUTEN-FREE flours also adapt very well to this recipe. I have already replaced all the white flour with ‘sweet Sorghum White flour’. a blend of fine rice flour and sorghum worked out great also.

• . > ** If wanting to use plain yogurt: place 1 cup (250ml) into a cheesecloth or coffee filter and through a sieve. Let it drain out its water content before using. This will yield 1/2 cup (125ml) and usually takes about 30 minutes. I sometimes have this prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for other type recipes also.
