Possible Variations!
- Swap the liquid: Instead of milk, go for water for fewer calories, but remember, it might not be as tasty. Or, if you’re feeling indulgent, use cream for that extra richness.
- Switch up the nuts: If pecans aren’t your jam, try walnuts instead, or skip the nuts altogether if you prefer.
- Skip the coconut: If coconut isn’t your cup of tea, just leave it out entirely. No fuss, no muss.
- Throw in some raisins: Fancy a bit of sweetness? Toss a quarter cup of raisins into the batter for a delightful twist.
