Just discovered you on YouTube. Love your recipes. Made breakfast cookies but made them own with 2Tbs. Natural peanut butter (ground by me at Whole Foods) and stevia blend and 2Tbs. Almond flour. Whole family loves them. Great for type 1 diabetic n everybody else. Next bake lemon blueberry muffins. Sandy from Kentucky

Hi Dani, I was wondering what I can replace or sub the chocolate chips out with? not a huge choco
Dani says
Hi Jenna. How about some dried fruit instead? Raisins, cranberries, etc.
Melanie says
I haven’t made these yet but wondering if I could use monkfruit instead of maple syrup?
Dani says
I am pretty sure that would work just fine!
