Okay, so we managed to remove the dairy no problem, with the applesauce and alternative milk, but that only solves a dilemma for our dairy-free qualification!

While the original recipe does has eggs and honey, you can substitute agave for the honey, and to substitute ONE egg, use 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed mixed with 3 tablespoons of water and mix well. Mix these together towards the beginning of preparation to be sure it has time to set up and thicken.

Here are some favorites ingredient toppings to add in and mix up!

Dried cranberries
White Chocolate Chips
Coconut Flakes
Pumpkin Seeds
Chia Seeds
Walnuts
Slivered Almonds
Pecans
Dark chocolate chips
Raisins
Goji Berries
