Variations
Nut-freeYou can sub the nut butter with tahini and or sunflower seed butter. I’ve also had feedback that using regular butter half-half with the nut butter works well too (though I haven’t tested it myself). Another flour
You can certainly use another flour if you wish – any flour (except coconut) or even almond meal can be subbed 1:1.
