Tips

• The sweet and savoury options listed above are just 2 ideas. The options for flavours and ingredient additions are endless. Just be aware that adding very wet ingredients will alter the consistency of the dough so a little more flour may need to be added as well.
• Swap ¼ cup chopped fresh herbs for 1 Tbsp dried herbs.
