    Why do you have to use both almond and arrowroot flour?

    Yes it is important to use both of these flours.
    Almond flour tends to have more moisture than wheat flour, so reducing the amount of liquid and fat and adding a starch or even coconut flour can be helpful. 

    Can I substitute coconut flour if I’m allergic to almond flour?

     Coconut flour is particularly absorbent and sucks up a lot of moisture. Replacing coconut flour for almond flour (or grain flours) requires that you adjust the amount of liquid and eggs added. For this recipe you could do 2 cups coconut flour with 1/2 cup arrowroot or tapioca flour.
