    Incredible!
    I'm gluten free and substituted 1 c. brown rice flour plus 1/2 c. tapioca starch for the wheat flour. Exceptional! Thank you for sharing!!! - 12/1/12

    Incredible!
    I substituted half of the raw sugar for brown sugar and used chopped pecans instead of walnuts. Delicious! Love that they use so much flax. I also added a tiny bit of brown sugar crumble on top before baking. Very good! - 10/10/12
