Jody @ Mommy Moment says
Thanks Stacie! We do not eat refined sugar anymore so I have to be creative when making recipes. I bought my organic sprouted grain flour at Costco – They just starting carrying it at the location I shop at.

I love that this recipe does NOT include sugar. The banana’s, dates and maple syrup are a much wiser choice. The recipe sounds divine.

Viv Sluys says
This looks super good! I have a bunch of friends that have started buying sprouted grains and they make delicious foods with them. I’m tempted to start bringing them into my cooking too. Do you use coconut sugar at all or is it a refined sugar too?
Jody @ Mommy Moment says
I do have coconut sugar in my house, but I honestly rarely use it. I try to stick to dates, pure maple syrup and honey as my first choices. I do think that coconut sugar is a great alternative to white or brown sugar though!
Lisa @ The Wellness Wife says
