Notes

* use gluten-free oats to make the recipe gluten-free

** Rolled oats ground up into a fine flour in a high-speed blender

*** Ground almonds, not almond flour. I haven’t tried using almond flour to make this recipe as it’s difficult to get hold of in the UK. I can’t say whether almond flour would work the same. 

**** You can leave out the chocolate if you prefer, but I would highly recommend using it
