Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

I use brown rice flour and baking powder in place of the self-raising flour, and low GI sugar in place of the brown sugar. You may also substitute the oil for melted butter or margarine.

I sometimes add about half a cup of slivered almonds for added crunch.
