Camber says
Can you sub honey for maple syrup ?
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
Hi Camber! Yep, that should be fine. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Elizabeth says
Does the peanut butter stand out in flavor? Also, would these work for oatmeal cream pies? I haven’t tried these yet lol
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
The flavor is pretty mild, but if you’re concerned you could swap it for almond butter, or another nut butter with a flavor you enjoy. As for making oatmeal cream pies, I haven’t tried it myself so I can’t say for sure, but it should be okay. The cookies don’t have the same texture as regular baked cookies, so keep that in mind. Let me know how they turn out! 🙂
