Well these tasted delicious but just crumbled to bits any ideas what I did wrong?? Did I maybe under cook them?

These are delicious & great for whole family. I recommend adding 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, mmm!

 

Easy to make ! made loads and my son loves them, added Almonds as an extra and they taste really nice!

 

well ..and mine were horrible. I'm quite good when it comes to cooking ..but there seemed to be something wrong with this recipe.. I did follow it!!!

 

these are brilliant. my whole family love these and there ab fab for school lunchboxes. try them now :)

 

AK definitely says they are good for anyone who doesn't have an egg allergy as they don't contain any egg. However, the recipe and video clearly show egg is used.

Can they be made egg free or not? Please advise.

says no egg, but Annabel adds a egg?!!!

 

check the ingredients it definitely mentions egg.
