Hi. Can you use almond flour instead of almond meal?
pasta-based
If you’re okay with a much finer texture.

Can I use pecan meal instead of almond meal
pasta-based
Hi Kathy,
It would be a different flavor, but we don’t see why pecan meal can’t work. Almonds are more bland than pecans, so the nut flavor will come through quite a bit more, though. Let us know if you try it and how it comes out!

This recipe is amazing! Flavorful, quick and easy. I found a similar nut free recipe with hemp seed hearts. I will keep this in my fridge continuously going forward. So much more natural & healthier than buying the vegan parmesan cheeses at the store. Thank you for sharing!
