Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Substitute tahini for almond butter.

Substitute unsweetened applesauce for banana.

Flour-free
Use almond meal in place of oat flour.

Nut-free
Substitute pumpkin seeds for pecans, or another seed of your choice like hemp or flax.

Whole Food Sweetener
Substitute date paste for coconut sugar, but add it to the “wet ingredients.” Also, you will only need 1 ¼ cups plant-based milk instead of 1 ½ cups when you substitute date paste for coconut sugar.

Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days or freeze for up to 30 days.
