I made these today, modified the recipe, replaced the apple sauce with used Organic Earth Balance, a vegan butter, and mixed organic cane sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and ground cloves and sprinkled that on, as opposed to the one ingredient, cinnamon. I really liked the outcome. Thanks for sharing...:)

Your welcome, sounds like you made some great changes to work for you 🙂

Was the cinnamon, nutmeg, and ground cloves organic too? I hope so. I buy all my organic seasonings, and spices from my Harris Teeter grocery store, but I can also buy them from Walmart or online too.

Good to know 🙂 I just don't really care for sugar subs
