Can I use Almond flour and coconut sugar?
I would suggest using all purpose gluten-free flour because almond flour can be tricky with this recipe and yes coconut sugar works wonderfully!!!
Love them. But I added salt because this recipe needs salt.
Thanks for letting me know! And yes!!! Looks like I forgot to add the salt measurements I’ll get that on there. Xo
