Kristine Simpson says
Any suggestions for a substitution for the corn meal? I am grain free and these sound amazing otherwise.
Erin says
Arrowroot powder?
Lynn Boyd says
I’m going to try it for the same reason!
Habiba says
I saw that ground flax seeds could work as a substitute. I need to sub that out as well. Try to leave a comment with what you tried and I will too. 🙂
Jen says
Thought I might try tapioca or casava
Rachel says
Tigernut flour works well, as does almond flour.
Deniz says
I wonder if almond flour would work as a sub?
Laura Haney says
Wondering if you tried the almond flour?
Lori Clapp says
I’d like to add sesame seeds on mine.
Soph says
Not a huge coconut fan, any ideas on what to use instead?
Dustie Casuse says
Sprouted oats and sprouted pumpkin seeds coarsely chopped makes a delicious crust base.
Louise Massoud says
Can I ask how much is ‘one stick’ of butter? From Australia here 🙂
Marie says
4oz, so about 113g.
Audrey See says
I took an herbology course last year. Our instructor advised us not to cook with honey as it becomes toxic to the body. Any truth to that?
Tamara says
Thought honey wasn’t supposed to be heated. Assuming oven temperature is not hot enough to make honey toxic and void of nutritional benefit after baking.
Sona says
Hi there! Is the T For teaspoon or tablespoon? Thank you!
Emily says
T is tablespoon
t is teaspoon
