Taz's Suggestions

* I have also made this recipe with gluten free flour (I used "freee" by DOVES FARM) and it turned out almost exactly the same as using regular flour so a great Gluten Free treat too!

** I found that i didn't need to use all the cinnamon sugar but thats just a personal preference. I have made this served with custard as well and it was again delicious!
