Recipe Notes

\n
\n\nUsing psyllium is optional but it does bind almond flour/almond meal. If you only have psyllium husks, process it till smooth to create you own psyllium powder to use in the recipe. Do not use the husks as they are too gritty.\n

Note that we calculate our own nutritional values so they may not be precise. Calculate your own if desired. Carb values exclude sugar alcohols such as Erythritol, as they generally have no impact on blood sugar levels. 50% of the carbs from Xylitol is added to nutritional values. This is consistent with industry practice.
