These look so yummy! Do you think I could use whey protein and/or almond flour instead of flour?

In reply to Pat Sheek. I'd love for you to try it out and let me know! Maybe cut everything in half and make only half a batch to test it.

In reply to Joyce. Yes you could just use the same amount in sugar and reduce the brown rice syrup to 2 tablespoons or replace with molasses.

Do you think this would work with coconut oil and coconut milk instead of butter and cream? They look heavenly.

My issues are more with gluten and dairy, so it should fit the bill completely. 🙂

This sounds great! I don’t have a sugar issue, though, so I’m wondering if I could just substitute the erythritol for sugar. Would it be the same amount as the erythritol?

In reply to Karen. If you click the link in the recipe it will take you directly to the product so you can look it over. You can find it on the shelves of most supermarkets and Whole Foods. It's not artificial like Splenda. It's actually a sugar alcohol and works well in recipes because it provides the bulk needed when table sugar is used. The other option is to find baking stevia to replace the erythritol, but I haven't tried it so not sure how it would work.

These look great! Where can I find powdered erythritol? Is that an artificial sweetener? Thanks!
