FAQ:
Can I make these cookies without oats? Yes! You can substitute the oats with additional almond flour, coconut flour, or even ground flaxseed. Keep in mind that the texture might change slightly.
What if I don't have almond flour? If almond flour is unavailable, try using coconut flour or gluten-free all-purpose flour as a substitute. Be sure to adjust the quantity as coconut flour absorbs more liquid.
Can I add sweeteners if I want more sweetness? Absolutely! If you prefer a sweeter cookie, you can add stevia, monk fruit sweetener, or a small amount of honey or maple syrup. Keep in mind that this will alter the sugar-free nature of the recipe.
Are these cookies suitable for people with nut allergies? You can make these cookies nut-free by using sunflower seed butter or tahini instead of peanut or almond butter. Just be sure to check that the other ingredients, such as oats and chocolate chips, are also nut-free if necessary.
Can I use regular sugar or flour in the recipe? While this recipe is designed to be sugar-free and flour-free, you can use regular sugar or all-purpose flour if preferred. However, the health benefits of the recipe will be reduced.
