    I made these with the half whole wheat, used 2/3 cup egg beaters and replaced two eggs, cut oil in half using fat free greek yogurt instead. - 9/25/09

    This recipe went over very well at Thanksgiving! In fact, I made it again today! This time I reduced the sugar, used more applesauce & less oil, used skim milk, and added allspice & ginger. It cut the calories to 84, the fat to 2 grams & carbs to 16. - 11/28/07
