Fruit Mixture

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Optional: sprinkle on top for extra aroma.
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Batter

Notes

Store leftovers in the fridge for about 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven or microwave. For a twist, try adding almond extract or mixing in berries.
