    • mashed sweet potato
    • peanut butter *** make sure it does not contain xylitol
    • honey
  • Water can be substituted with beef or chicken broth.
  • *I have tested this recipe with both all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour and both work well.  However, whole wheat flour has more nutritional value.  Nutritional info listed is using all-purpose flour.
