  • “Thumbs up for a healthy, boldly spiced treat!On the note of the spices, it certainly took the maple-yoghurt sauce to take the edge off that quantity of cinnamon, but the overall effect had the nuanced qualities of a top rate restaurant.Some of my brown sugar topping didn’t carmalize — next time I would drop a few drops of water on top.And presoaking the raisins (in brandy?) would prevent the hardening/burning of exposed raisins (and take the whole thing up _another_ notch!).Thanks a lot!”

  • “Loved this!
