That was a really great post thanks. I may try this with the new gluten free flour that you can sub one for one with regular flour as I've been looking for something to use with fajitas. Great instructions!

Yes, they sure can. Just toss in the toaster/microwave/oven as usual frozen breads :) Enjoy!

Hi there! I like to wrap them individually in cheap plastic wrap from the 99c store and then put a stack of those into a tough freezer bag. They reheat fabulously in the microwave, toaster, and oven!

This recipe sounds so good. I wonder if I could use sour cream instead of banana as my husband can't eat bananas for medical reasons.

Try a little less than a quarter cup of applesauce!! I am sure sour cream would work too. Testing is super fun!
