Tip

For a nut free version either use an extra 100g of sunflower butter and omit almonds. Or use 100g sunflowers and either 100g tahini or 100g sunflower butter. 

 

I have tried the basic batter with peanut butter (GAPS), sunflower butter, all peanut butter and no almonds, buckwheat flour, two brands of banana flour, coconut oil and butter (butter is better). Have also tried all three variants as recipe is with almonds, sunflower butter and butter plus relevan additions. Cinnamon is not necesary but it is lovely in all three, if your adverse to cinnamon omit.

    Turned out ok, too much oil and less time in oven, only 15 minutes needed. Wouldnt make them again
