Mary: This recipe comes out more like a steamed pudding than a coffee cake. It is quite gooey but delicious.

Cheryl: I’ve never had anything quite like it. The top and bottom had a nice crust, and the inside was very gooey. It’s very healthy, obviously, and a nice choice for people avoiding sugar.   The spices hid the typical amaranth taste. I could see having it for brunch. Very creative!
