These turned out wonderful making a few changes for my gluten free family. I used gluten free old fashion oatmeal that I blended slightly in the food processor. A few other changes made were: substitued gluten free flour mixture for regular flour. I used 2 egg whites for 1 whole egg and used another's suggestion of adding finely chopped pecans. My batter was very thick so I added a little extra buttermilk as well. Yummm! We served these with fresh berries but I think fried apples with them would be perfect as well!

This was a good basic recipe. I blanched my fresh beans for 3 min, cooked the bacon and the chopped onion (like other reviewers suggested) ahead of time. The bacon cut into 1/2 inch pieces fries up more quickly and is perfect for a crumbled consistensy with the beans. Threw everything together with the garlic for final saute just before meal time. I also added about 1/4 cup of good balsalmic vinegar at the end of the saute which made this side even better! 4 stars for basic recipe and 5 stars with the added onion and balsalmic vinegar...Yummm I will serve this again!
