    Honestly, I thought this would taste better. It just didn’t have enough flavor for me. Maybe I should have added more salt? 🤔

      I totally agree! I thought it would be super flavorful, but it was kinda bland. Definitely needs more seasoning next time. 🧂

    I tried making this but my batter was too thick, it just wouldn’t coat right. Any tips?
