Can I swap out the nut butter?
If you’re not a fan of peanut butter, or you’re unable to eat it, just use almond butter or cashew butter. The flip might switch up the flavor just a tad but it will still have that keto-friendly texture you’re looking for.
Any chance I can cut out the coconut oil?
Of course! Just swap out the coconut oil for some melted unsalted butter.
Got any fun, fancy version suggestions?
