Hi Susan! I’m so glad you enjoyed it❤ Thanks for giving us feedback.
Hello do you have adaptation for using an air fryer? Time and temp?
I would try around 325 degrees for 15 minutes and check if done. If using toothpicks, soak them in water first, so less likely to burn. 👍
I made these as a vegetable side dish. They were a big hit👍. Thank you for the recipe😊
Yay! Happy to hear that! You’re so welcome! Thank YOU for the feedback!
