These look great, but is there any way to bring down the carbs? REPLACING THE DATES with what?
Thanks Tracy
Hi Tracey,
You can try switching the dates for 1/4 cup of nut butter. That should work but you’d need to store them in the freezer as they will melt at room temperature.
Kind regards,

Thank you Louise, I’ll try that 🙂
