Allergic to coconut. Can I use almond flour?
Sounds awesome! I’m not allergic, but almond flour is amazing and very versatile. Thanks for suggesting it.
Hi Carolyn, thanks for asking! Yes you can use almond flour in this recipe. You could also use an all-purpose flour if you’re not gluten-free. Enjoy!
Can you use canned chickpeas?
Maggie, I think that would work, since they didn’t specify otherwise. By the way, I don’t think the site moderator ever replies to comments here. We’re on our own. 😉
Hi Michael, don’t worry we’re here 🙂
Hi Maggie, you can definitely use canned, as they are already cooked and ready to be used. Enjoy!
Can you add nutrition facs?
Hi Monique, we are in the process of adding nutritional info to all of our recipes. In fact, a small portion already do. Please keep checking back!
