Thank you Karen! That will be fine. You might find you need to adjust the amount of water very slightly to get them to come together. Just add as much as you need yo be able to roll it up into balls.

I think you could probably get away with most nuts or even seeds like pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds in this recipe. Just not peanuts as I'm not sure the flavour would work well. I think cashew nuts would be lovely!

I just found out I'm suppose to be staying away from almonds. My favorite Larabar is the mint choc chip so I'm trying to come up with some other alternatives.

I'm so pleased you are enjoying them and that they worked out with spelt flour. I love them cold form the fridge too!

I just made these yesterday. My husband and I both REALLY liked them. They taste best when cold out of the fridge...yum! I am not a fan of coconut flour, so I used the same amount of Spelt flour and they turned out perfect! Thank you for the delicious recipe, definitely a keeper, I'm sure I will be making this often!

No I meant 1.75 - 2 cups of almond flour. The question you are referring to was not asking for a substitute for coconut flour. It was asking if she could start with almond flour rather than whole almonds and was totoally unrelated. There are other questions asking about subs for the coconut flour though. Here is one of my responses (i just copied and pasted it rather than typing it all out again). - "I haven’t tried them with any other flours so I can’t guarantee the results if you try it. Coconut flour behaves a little differently to other flours and tastes good raw. Other flour such as all purpose or wholewheat don’t taste good raw and might make the balls a little gummy. Of all of them oat flour might be the best or just use some more almond flour. You might need to adjust the quantity slightly though as coconut flour is extremely absorbent.Start with the same amount and add an extra tablespoon at a time until it all binds together well enough to form into balls. As I said though I haven’t tried it myself so can’t guarantee how it will turn out."

I was looking at the comments to see if there was a substitution for coconut flour. Recipe calls for 1/4 cup coconut flour but in your reply to the original comment you say to try 1.75 to 2 cups almond flour. I assume you mean ounces?

Thats so good to hear! You've made my day. I aim to make most of my recipes healthier but always makes sure they taste amazing. I love my food way too much for it to be any other way!

I have never made anything gluten-free and vegan in my life but after trying the mint truffle larabites and coming across your recipe...wow. Your way turns out less datey and more chocolatey. Fan friggin tastic. Couldn't have asked for a better recipe to pop my GF-vegan cherry with ???? thank you so much!!
