    I exclusively sweeten with Lakanto brand monkfruit sweetener, which is a 0 sugar/0 glycemic index sweetener.

    I use the following forms of monkfruit in the cookbook:

    • Classic monkfruit granules (replacement for white sugar)
    • Golden monkfruit granules (replacement for brown sugar)
    • Powdered monkfruit (I blend classic granules in a blender to make homemade)
    • Maple-flavored syrup
    • Monkfruit drops
    • Pure monkfruit extract

    To find monkfruit, head to Lakanto's website. Use code PRETTYPIES at checkout for a sweet 20% discount on every order.

    You can also buy these on Thrive Market (an online grocery store for natural and organic products). Go to thrv.me/prettypies for a sweet 25% discount on your first order!

      I am very interested in your book, but I have to be egg free. Are all the recipes egg free or just some of them?

      Yes please! Hard cover would be delightful then it can take pride of place on my bookshelf!
      Out of interest, is it easy to substitute one kind of but for another in many of the recipients? We have a peanut and almond allergy in our house!

        I would love to make it available in hardcover! I’ll see what I can do.

        Peanuts, yes that’s an easy sub. You can replace it with any other nut or seed butter that you like. Sunbutter and cashew butter are my top recommendations.

        Almonds are a little trickier since they’re used in different forms:

        Almond butter - easy swap for another nut/seed butter.
        Almonds in a no-bake crust - easy swap for any other nut/seed.
        Blanched soaked Almonds as cream - you can substitute cashews or macadamia nuts.
        Almond flour for baking — I haven’t found a perfect/exact replacement. However, any other nut or seed flour will lend a similar result. You can make your own nut flours using a food processor. Or get them online or at specialty stores.
        Hope that helps! 🙂

      Are the recipes in the cookbook already on your website? Or are they all new?

        It’s a mix of both. I included some of the most popular, best of the best, fan-favorite recipes on my site, along with a lot of new ones that aren’t available anywhere else

      I have been making Emily's recipes for a couple years not and she is a God sent and a genius in the kitchen! Her recipes saved me when I worked at a bakery from having to eat all the garbage. I made her recipes and I could indulge without the guilt. This book is so worth the investment! Delicious and decadent recipes without sugar!!! You won't regret it!
