    Is the arrow root powder crucial? I don’t have any and want to make it this weekend.

    I was just wondering if you think Sunbutter would work as well. Both my children have nut allergies and we are just starting to embark on this new wheat free journey. Thanks!

      They may turn green, I’ve made sunbutter cookies in the past and this has occured. I know there is a reason on why it happens..but I forget why at this moment.

    This recipe looks awesome – but with 2 cups of almond butter at the Radiant Life price of $15.50 per cup, I can’t imagine fitting them into my budget very often ;) Do most people make their own nut butters? I have a Blendtec blender, but haven’t had any luck using it for nuts. I should probably get a food processor for this purpose – is there a particular brand/model that you’d recommend? Thanks!

    I just made these and they are delicious. Mine turned out a lot darker than the photo. Is 2 tbsp of cinnamon the correct amount?
