Dairy-Free: Use almond milk, soy milk or water in place of the milk and oil in place of the butter. My husband is highly allergic to all milk products and I make it with almond milk and canola oil for him — no one ever knows!

can u please tell me – the flour used in the batter, is it plain or self raising? (im assuming plain since it has so much baking powder in it but just checking to be sure)… Also with regards to the topping – I do mix the brown sugar in with the rest of the ingredients hey or does it get sprinkled on seperately? Seems to have been accidently left out lol…

Kim Waller — Good catch! The brown sugar gets mixed in with the rest of the topping mix . . . I fixed the recipe (you were right, it just accidentally got left out — no matter how many times I proof things!). And yes, it’s just regular flour (although you can use whole wheat, but it’ll change the texture slightly).
