I haven't tried it yet myself, though--please let me know if you do try them that way! :) I find that around 20 drops is roughly 1/4 tsp (1 ml), so I’d go with 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) of powdered if I were making these with powder.

The chia is an egg replacer, so you can use 1 Tbsp ground flax meal per teaspoon (5ml) of chia instead. If you're talking about the coconut milk in the carton (not the can), it should work instead. Otherwise, I'd water down the canned coconut milk so it's about the same consistency as the almond/soy. I can't guarantee results as this changes the recipe considerably, but it's worth a try!

I used cashew milk (homemade), 1/4 cup amaranth flour and 1/4 cup millet flour, and added 1/4 cup coconut sugar. I love the lemon with the pumpkin and blueberries (although I actually used my yummy mountain huckleberries instead of blueberries). They came out very nice. Lovely texture, not crumbly at all. They did sink a little in the middle when I rotated the pan at 15 minutes - but not a major impact. Ricki – Wanted to let you know that I made these, subbing pumpkin for the applesauce.

I've been trying to find a muffin or other recipes using Stevia since I'm a diabetic. And it is great that it is gluten-free too so that I can make it for my son who is allergic to wheat. What brand of Stevia do you use? Do you use the concentrated liquid or the clear liquid one? I will probably try it this weekend. Thanks again for sharing the recipe The muffins look really great!

On another note, do you have a simple formula for subbing flax and/or chia for eggs? Is there a basic rule of thumb to follow? Do you have to change the formula based on whether you're making quickbreads/muffins or bagels or sandwich bread or cakes, etc.? I would so appreciate your feedback. Thanks. Please feel free to email me at birdwoman5151@yahoo.com. Much continued success! I hope the book is doing fabulous! Ellen Hi Ricki,
