In reply to LaHonda Scott. Mushrooms get soggy, so I would try them last if frying other foods. I do love this batter for onion rings ( on my site also) and for broccoli I like to very slightly thin the batter. Glad you like it.

This is an awesome batter. It is thoroughly well liked. Will keep on using it. Can you use it on mushrooms?

Not sure how people could say this mixture was dry, mine certainly wasn’t. I made a few modifications: reduced the sugar to 1.25 cups and added a tablespoon of espresso powder. This made them less sweet and the coffee made them more “adult”. Really good!

In reply to Ace. There's a cup of ground nuts in this recipe. You can certainly reduce the amount of butter if you need too. This recipe is for 2 pie crusts.

In reply to Phil Wright. Thank you for sharing this info! I didn't realize there would be such differences. Im in Canada and I do know that Canadian all-purpose flour typically has a higher protein content than US all-purpose flour. Thanks for the review, glad you like it!

In reply to Irene. Hi Irene, I’m in Scotland my dad lives in Edmonton Alberta. When I was there visiting him I did some baking, I used the same ingredients as I always use, but my cake turned out quite dry, I couldn’t understand why until I did a little research. It turns out the atmosphere in Canada is much drier than it is in the UK and this can affect ingredients and cooking times, who knew !! It’s possible this is the cause of Andrew’s gummy cake. This is a great recipe by the way, cheers .

I recommend revisiting the instructions you gave. You cannot melt that much butter and sugar, without it turning into sugar on bottom, oil on top.
I’d mix sugar with cinnamon, and spread the butter on the pie crust first, THEN apply the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly.
