Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Sour cream pancakes

    • Kitiara121 on July 12, 2020

      I made these pancakes as per recipe. The batter was too runny so I needed to add a significant amount of flour, etc. I will not make this recipe again.

  • Cranberry scones

    • cucinahalcon on November 21, 2018

      This is my standard scone recipe. I usually omit the cranberries.
