Recipe F.A.Q.’s

Can you use Whey Protein?

Yes. Whey does contain lactose and more sugar than vegan protein unless you use Isolate Protein. It will not be dairy free though.

Do I need to use pumpkin spice if I don’t have any?

No, you can add any of the holiday spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger or clove.

What if I want to make it sweeter?

You can add a drop or two of liquid stevia or agave.
