Notes
Most of these ingredients can be found at healthfood stores or online. If you don’t have something substitute it with something else. It’s a really easy going recipe.
Rice malt syrup is made from brown rice. It’s sweet, derived from a complex carbohydrate and doesn’t contain any fructose. (it’s better for your body basically) You can substitute with honey, maple syrup or date syrup.(these 3 subs. do contain fructose though)
If you are making these fructose free, omit the dried fruit and add the equivalent of chopped nuts.
