Hi,
I just made these and they came out amazing! Just wondering if you have any suggestions for a sweetener that could replace the maple syrup so I can make them for my boyfriend who is diabetic? Thanks!!!
Ah, I’m so glad! I would use Lakanto’s Sugar-Free Maple Syrup–I’m a huge fan of it and it’s completely sugar-free!
I just made them with my family and we had a blast spending time doing it together. Thank you for the recipe
Yay, I’m so glad you enjoyed!
