Notes

For a richer flavor, swap oil for melted butter. Use almond, oat, or coconut milk for a dairy-free version. Substitute honey or maple syrup for sugar for natural sweetness. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for up to 2 months. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with caramel sauce for serving, and consider adding fresh berries and whipped cream for a pop of color.
