Can I use fresh blueberries?
Hi Amanda, You can use fresh blueberries that are frozen over night.
These looks delicious! Is the coconut sweetened?
Hi Krissy, no the coconut i used was not sweetened. But you can use sweetened.
These look so good. I have a nut allergy. Can you use regular flour instead?
I would use ground up sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds as a replacement for the almond flour.
Hi, do you have a substitute for almond flour? Thank you!
Hi – yes you can use ground up sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds!
Υπάρχει κάτι με το οποίο μπορώ να αντικαταστήσω το αλεύρι αμυγδάλου? Ή σε περίπτωση που δεν βρω μπορώ να το κάνω μόνη χτυπώντας τα αμύγδαλα στο μπλέντερ?
