I love almonds! And I always try to get a good amount of protein into my snacks…I will definitely be baking these.
These are little lifesavers – I made them gluten free, got my joy of baking back! Thanks for posting :-)
These look great! exactly what I’ve been looking for in the morning with coffee
Making these right now! :)
Is it possible to make these without eggs or using and flaxseed egg equivalent?
I am sure you could sub in a flax egg–let me know if it works!
