Is there a way to make this recipe if I don’t have almond pulp? I have almond flour and meal. Thanks
Lauren
Hi Darlene,
You can definitely use grounds almonds or any combination of nuts you like. It may have a bit of a different consistency, but I think it will still be good! 🙂

This sounds delicious! Thanks for clarifying the almond pulp in another comment – I was also confused.
I would love to have you share this and any of your other posts on Thursdays at Tasty Traditions: http://myculturedpalate.com/

Thank you Dina-Marie! I’ll link up this week! 🙂

OK, this is a random comment but I had to share. Did you see that Ricki Heller uses psyllium husks to replace xanthan gum in this gluten-free biscuit recipe: http://www.attunefoods.com/blog/2013/01/sweet-potato-lentil-pot-pie/ ? I know you avoid gums so I had to share. =)
Lauren
Thanks Marya! I’ve used psyllium as an egg replacer, but it’s awesome that she’s replacing xanthan gum with it! Thanks for letting me know! 🙂

Looks delicious! I make my own low carb, gluten-free, grain-free granola too. I am pinning this to my Paleo/Primal Power board. Please let me know if you’d like to be a part of this group board on Pinterest!
Lauren
Hi Carolyn! I’d love to be a part of it! Just let me know how to go about it. Thank you! 🙂

What’s your pinterest handle? I will invite you!
Lauren
It is laurensoatmeal. Thanks again! 🙂
Virginia
This recipe looks delicious, but having not visited your website before, I am confused. Can you tell me what you mean by almond pulp?
Lauren
Hi Virginia and welcome! I guess I did write the post assuming everyone would know what I was talking about. Almond pulp is what is leftover after making almond milk. I have a recipe for almond milk here: https://www.oatmealwithafork.com/2012/06/04/raw-ice-cream-ore-o-cookie-sandwiches-and-homemade-almond-milk/, but you could also substitute almond meal or a variety of nuts ground up. You just may not get the cluster effect. I hope that helps! 🙂
Chris
Thanks for sharing. Do you have the nutrition information for this? Also, how much does it make?
Lauren
Hi Chris! I sent the info to him, but I guess he didn’t post it, so here you go! 🙂 I’d say it makes about a 1-1 1/2 cup.
