SUBSTITUTES

Are you missing something? Before disappointed,  keep on reading and you are going to learn how to replace all recipe ingredients. Also, this recipe can be easily made vegan.

  • All-purpose flour: replace with spelt flour or wholewheat flour. This recipe does not work well with oat flour or almond flour.
  • Coconut flour: use more of any of the flour mentioned above, just use double the quantity of coconut flour, but calories and macros will vary. Coconut flour requires almost half the quantity compared to regular flour, thus prefer to use it for this erecipe.
  • Greek yoghurt: replace with Skyr or quark. Also dairy-free, as long as it has a thick and firm texture (no runny yoghurt here!).
  • Egg whites: use more Greek yoghurt instead. If not restricted to calories, you can use whole eggs as long as you use the same weight. Also for a vegan option, replace egg whites with one flax egg.
  • Baking powder: skip if you don’t have it. The crust will come out anyway, but it will stay pretty flat. In addition, you can replace it with baking soda, since the recipe has yoghurt in it will work well.
