Love this. What are the serving sizes? I split it into two
Hi! We’d say this serves ~2-4 🙂
Hi can almond flour be used instead of oat flour? Would it still be yummy?
We haven’t tried so we can’t say for sure, but we think it would work! Let us know if you try it! 🙂
Hi, I found this recipe and wanted to know can the dates be dried? I bought some, but I just wanted to know if it would still work. I am a little hesitant to make this.
Do you know the calorie value for this please?
I did it with sun dried dates and it came out great!
This was delicious. I played around with the recipe and replaced half a cup of the oat flour with cooked garbanzo bean. It was really cool to make this as the base recipe and then play around with different toppings when you served it to make different cookie flavors, like peanut/almond butter, or some kind of coffee powder.
Is it possible to substitute dried raisins for dates?
If you’re not a chocolate fan, can you substitute something else for the chocolate chips?
Definitely! Feel free to add in nuts, dried fruit, or another favorite!
Can you use all purpose flour?
