Flourless yet flawless! The Organic Protein Company tell us they have been tweaking this recipe over the years and have finally found a near-perfect mixture that isn't too moist or too dry. The key ingredient is the whey protein, which absorbs just the right amount of moisture to create a soft, moist crumb. Enjoy!
