Hi! What do you recommend I substitute for arrowroot powder? I don’t have that 😭
tapioca or corn starch!
I love the concept of this pumpkin crustless recipe and everything in it except tofu. Could I substitute?
hi! it needs the tofu! 🙂
Is there an alternative to almond butter for people with nut allergies?
another nut or seed butter!
Could I have the nutritional breakdown for the Healthy Vegan and Gluten-Free Crustless Pumpkin Pie.
Thank you
hi! i am not sure 🙂
You can enter the ingredients in the cronometer app
This sounds delicious! Do you think it would compromise the pie if we were to use cashew butter instead of almond butter? We have an almond allergy in the house. Sunbutter could be another option. Do you have a suggestion?
another nut butter would be fine 🙂
Should the tofu be squeezed out?
i did a little! 🙂
