when substituting buttermilk (w/ 1 tbsp. vinegar and a cup regular milk) be sure to let it stand for about 5 mins. before using.
ReplyDeleteNote too that you may or may not put streusel topping (see photos). Without topping may not look as attractive and taste as sweeter as w/ streusel topping but better for people who wants to cut down on sugar and extra cal.
