Just made a half batch…YUM!!! Thank you Calla! <3
What, if anything, can I use instead of protein powder
Could I use regular flour instead of almond? Or something else?
My son has a nut allergy.
I’m allergic to almonds. Is there a good substitute for the almond flour? Maybe coconut or oat? Or even regular flour?
I bet oat flour would be best!
Sooo good! 😍🤤 Thank you!💗
Yay, so happy you love this Colleen! Thank you 🤍
