    DSCN0628I love this recipe! It’s so easy and delicious! Frying them took a little practice- the first few were a little too brown.  But once I got it, they were amazing! I could eat something with cinnamon every day.

     Scott and the kids loved these, too. A fast and easy way to make a happy family. :)
