Notes
Nutrition Facts are an estimate and may vary depending on specific ingredients you choose.
*If you'd like to make these soy-free, you can sub any of Silk's other plant-based milks, like Almondmilk, Cashewmilk or Coconutmilk.
**Organic brown sugar will also work but then they won't be refined sugar-free.
***You can sub white whole wheat flour with similar results. I haven't tried GF AP flour but that should also work.
