I didn't have walnuts and used craisins instead of raisins. I was pleasantly surprized. Thanks - 10/11/11

To make this Gluten free I used 1 c tapioca flour 1/4c fava bean flour and 1/4c white rice flour and 1.5 tsp Zantan gum - delicious - Yes the batter is thick but turned out beautiful and delicious esp with a tiny bit of whip topping. - 7/27/11

This is my very FAVORITE green tomato recipe. You can't even tell tomatoes are in the recipe. I gave some to some friends and they agreed. We loved this. - 10/15/10

This is good. If you didn't know better you might think these were apple chunks. A lot of sugar makes anything yummy!:)
Tasty treat. - 10/19/08

I've revamped it a bit and it still tastes just as good to me so please try the reduction in sugar method i have jut submitted and the change in butter. I am glad you enjoyed it.
