Recipe Notes

If you don’t want to use cashew, you can choose to substitute it by 2 tablespoons of cashew or almond butter. I think they are delicious, however, I avoid to use it daily as they are very strong for our organism and should be used with parsimony. We should always prefer the consumption of nuts instead its butters.
