Layla, your blog gives us a little piece of Ecuador even when we are far away. My hubasnd is from Ecuador (Ibarra), and I lived there many years too, but not being from there I never really learned to cook all the dishes we love. When we are missing local dishes, we always turn to your webpage and find exactly what we need. And the meal that follows always soothes our nostalgia, even if for just one night. Thanks for this invaluable resource. Best, Karla

This was really good! I used sweetened applesauce instead and backed down the sugar by 1/2 a cup. I also added raisins in one loaf and it was great!!!
