Hi there..... I am a bit confused on the amount of nuts. I understand 1 and 3/4 cup pecans. But the 1 and 3/4 cup other nuts and seeds....do you mean combined to make 1 and 3/4 cup? Thanks!
Swerve
Hi Amy! Thanks for visiting our website! The recipe calls for 1 and 3/4 cups of pecans, plus 1 and 3/4 cups other nuts, like almonds and walnuts. So the total amount of nuts in the recipe should be 3 and 1/2 cups. I hope this helps! Enjoy the recipe!
Liane
This looks so yummy! I'm not a fan of chia seeds. Could we replace the chia seeds with something else like bacon bits? Thanks!
Swerve
Hi Liane, that should work fine!

Do the nuts have to be raw or can they be roasted and salted?
Swerve
We'd recommend using raw nuts, since you will be baking them.

How should this be stored after making it and what is the expiration ?
Swerve
Hi Gina! You should store in an airtight container. At room temperature (which we recommend) for about a week. Thanks for the question!
