FAQs
1. Can I use regular flour instead of almond flour?
Yes, but this will change the texture and flavors of the cookies. Almond flour makes them gluten-free and adds a unique nutty taste.
2. Are these cookies suitable for people with nut allergies?
No, these cookies contain almond flour. If you have a nut allergy, consider using a different type of flour, but keep in mind that the recipe’s texture may vary.
3. How can I make these cookies dairy-free?
The recipe is already dairy-free since it uses coconut oil instead of butter. Just ensure that your chocolate chips are also dairy-free.
