Could Almond flour be a substitution?
Olive oil instead of coconut oil?

It’ll be 1 1/2 cups almond flour for the swap and adds much more fat per cookie. I honestly haven’t tried the olive oil as a swap. Softened butter may be better texture wise.
Can unsweetened coconut milk be substituted instead of almond milk?
