Delicious!! I have made them twice, perfect!! At 3800 FT high desert. Thank you for converting this. -
We made these at 8,300ft and they turned out great! They leavened perfectly and were very moist. Love that they don’t have nuts so my son can take them to school. I only used half of the crumble topping to cut the sugar a bit and I doubled the spices in the batter because I really enjoy tasting the spices.

2nd time making these. They came out perfect. I add nutmeg and vanilla extract to the batter and omit the toppings. So moist and delicious. I'm at 4120 elevation here. Thank you so much :) I just added pecans to the tops before I put them in the oven.
