    Hi Rhian! Can’t wait to try this! Quick question about the coconut oil - should it be in liquid or solid form when you add it to the flour? I’m guessing liquid, but juuust want to make sure so it doesn’t get messed up lol.

    • Rhian Williams

      Solid form is better!

    • TORRES

    Hi, I’m looking forward to making this. Can I make it a day ahead and cook it day of?

    • Rhian Williams

      Yes that should be ok!

    If you are making this do NOT use the almond in the dough. It causes it to become crumbly, and the adhesion is not there. Our dough had holes and cracks in it without being as thin as a normal dough could be. Because of this, the dough also didn't cover over the top, either. Flavors were good, just need to adjust the dough.
