Flames Master Tips!

* I use 0% m.f. plain Greek yogurt. You could substitute vanilla or fruit flavoured Greek yogurt or sour cream.

** Can substitute melted butter or another mild flavoured oil of your choosing.

*** I have substituted maple syrup in this recipe and it turned out lovely!

**** I like to use Whole Wheat Flour; you can substitute All Purpose flour instead.
