Notes

STORAGE: Can be kept refrigerated (covered) for up 2 weeks.
SWEETENER: If you choose to opt out of maple syrup, you can always substitute with Agave, date syrup, or vegan ‘Honee’ as well.
NUT BUTTER:Instead of using almond butter, you can also substitute with Peanut Butter, Sunflower Seed Butter, Tahini, Soynut Butter, Pecan Butter, Hazelnut Butter, or Granola Butter.
TOASTED PECANS: Add chopped pecans to a baking sheet and toasting them in the oven (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for 5-10 minutes, tossing them halfway to avoid browning on one side.
