Preparation
Chef’s notes
Use a baking dish:
Bake the batter in a baking dish (I’d recommend a 9 x 9-inch) instead of individual baking cups. Cooking time will depend on the size of your baking dish.
Use different mix-ins:
Use whatever other kinds of chopped nuts or baking chips you might prefer, or add in some chopped dried fruit, coconut flakes, or fresh berries. I recommend limiting the total amount of mix-ins to around 1/2 cup.
Use different spices:
Use whatever other warming spices you might prefer, either in addition to or mixed with the ground cinnamon and ginger, such as ground allspices, cardamom, cloves or nutmeg.
Make it dairy-free:
Use dairy-free milk and chocolate chips (if using) to make this recipe dairy-free.
Make it vegan:
Use a flax egg (3 tablespoons water mixed with 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds, soaked together for 5 minutes) in place of a traditional egg.
