You can replace sugar in the recipe with any kind of honey — you will need about 3-4 tablespoons, but such a sweet product is not added to the dough, but served with a chopped and cooled dish. Honey cannot be heat treated, as this ingredient loses its beneficial properties.

If desired, dried fruits can be steamed in boiling water for 20 minutes in advance, then dried with paper towels, however, dry raisins “draw” moisture into themselves during baking, which will make the casserole fluffy and keep its shape. Mix thoroughly. You can add orange or lemon zest, citrus juice, and vanilla flavoring to the mixture.
