This is a great recipe. Lovely and moist. I used aged cheddar and added 3/4 cup of chopped spinach. Loved it. Definitely a keeper and very adaptable.

These are really nice and light. I cut the oil in half and substituted apple sauce. The recipe doubles really well I'm going to freeze half of them. I don't like onions so I omitted those but I think I will try adding garlic and/or herbs to mix it up next time.

very yummy and light - I didn't have green onions so made the recipe without it. They were great as is - I might use sharp (old) cheddar next time. Oh, and I did add 1/8 tsp of cayenne just because!
