Recipe looks amazing, I am going to try it with poppy seeds instead of chia seeds. I love the mixing bowls you are now using = the ones with handles and pour spout. Do you have a product recommendation on those?
Here is a link to the bowl set.
How important is it use the 3 different flours?
I have a nut allergy. If I omit the almond flour what should I use in its place? This recipe looks really delicious
I think it would still work to use a combination of more of the oat and coconut flour
Hi, what do you recommend substituting for coconut flour? Thank you!
Almond or cashew flour.
Thank you ?
I never have any luck blending dates adequately. I’d like to substitute maple syrup or date sugar for the dates. Any idea what the ratio would be?
Can I substitute flax for chia as they upset my stomach.
Hmmm that is a good question that I honestly don’t know. Now sure how they would turn out.
I should have watched the video first! I waited too long and the batter was too thick. I had to add more liquid but the result was not as good. Will try again soon!
I just put these in the oven. The minute I added my liquids to the flour mixture it was paste. Never wet enough to even pour. I added about another cup of plant milk and some date syrup but it was still so thick I had to spoon it in. Hopefully they will still turn out. I had enough batter to fill a tray of flat cookies too. What did I do wrong? everything was measured accordingly.
Hmm, I’m not sure. I will have to look over the recipe to make sure there isn’t a typo
