Suggestions
If you’re feeling adventurous, swap out the apples for pears or the bananas for mashed sweet potatoes. Garnish with a cream cheese frosting for a luxurious twist, or keep it light with a dusting of powdered sugar. Pro tip: toast some pecans or walnuts and toss them into the batter for a nutty crunch. Enjoy!
