Looks delicious! Do you have a recipe for the icing?
Sami Smith
Hi Kate! Thank you for reminding me, I meant to add it to the recipe card! I'll update it now, but in the meantime, for a non-paleo icing: 1/2 cup powdered sugar mixed with water to thin, and for a paleo icing: melt 1/4 cup coconut butter and mix with 1-2 tbsp maple syrup!:)

Hi, what could I substitute the almond meal for? Would love to try this, but need to be nut free.
Sami Smith
Hi Kelly! I have only tried this recipe with almond flour, however, I'd suggest trying finely ground oat flour or cassava flour. I hope it works for you:)
