Not so fast! Before you scroll down to grab the recipe, let me tell you a little bit about the marshmallows! Not every marshmallow will do. The traditional kind you can purchase at the grocery store is full of high fructose corn syrup, a big no-no on the Autoimmune Protocol. What you need is AIP-friendly marshmallows, like the ones you can find at Sweet Apricity.

The vanilla marshmallows of Sweet Apricity are AIP-compliant, crafted with simple ingredients like grass-fed beef gelatin, organic marshmallow root powder, and organic honey. They’re ready to top hot chocolate, roast over campfires, or satisfy any sweet craving!

      In my experience, there isn’t really a good substitute for tigernut flour. That being said, I would use tapioca flour or arrowroot flour if I was in a bind.
