    Is there anything one could use to replace the almond flour in this recipe?

      It will probably change the texture a bit since almond flour doesn't absorb as much liquid, but you can use additional whole wheat or oat flour - I would try only using 2 tablespoons of flour of choice in place of the 1/4 cup almond meal. Hope this helps :)

    The recipe calls for 1 whole egg, but the method has egg whites listed. What should be used?

      Oh good catch! It is one whole egg. I will fix that in the "method" section now. Thank you for pointing that out :)

    This looks absolutely delicious, I am definitely trying this! But are you supposed to eat it warm or let it set in the fridge?

    Made this tonight. I used oat bran instead of oat flour and was worried about the outcome. But it is super delicious! Nice texture! So glad I doubled the recipe and have one for the freezer. Thanks for sharing this winner!!

      I'm happy to hear that replacement worked! I may have to try that next time - I love to bake with oat bran. And you're very welcome. So glad it was enjoyed (& doubled) :)

    Hi Nicolette, do you have any suggestions to replace the wheat or oat flour that would be gluten free?
    Thank you

      I actually use a gluten-free oat flour. If you can't find that, I recommend using almond meal flour and coconut flour at a 1:1 ratio to replace the oat flour cup for cup. Does this make sense??

    Don't you use any baking powder or baking soda?
    Thanks

    Take out all the ingredients required for the recipe of your choice, and wait until they are at room temperature. Mango cake delivery

    What are the measurements for the mini loaf pan? Can I use honey or coconut sugar instead? If yes, how much?

      it's about a 5 inch x 2 inch. Yes, you can use coconut sugar. I would go with 1/4 cup.

    Whole wheat will surely taste appetizing by adding fresh berries or mashed bananas. Make a nice loaf or muffins with these ingredients. bread machine recipes

    I wonder what would happen if I made it without the cream cheese. I can't have dairy right now so I'm having a hard time finding a sub for that. I wanna try it anyway though!
