Notes
I have converted grams to cups/ounces/tablespoons using online converters. Although I have no reason to believe they are inaccurate, please be aware that I have not made this recipe with imperial measurements
- You can use the same amount of regular flour instead of spelt.
- I used store-bought food colouring for this recipe. However, if you would prefer to use something more natural, read the information in my post.
