I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead. The peppernuts were still delicious.

I'm not a big fan of black pepper, so I omitted it from the recipe. The peppernuts still turned out great.

I've made this recipe several times and I've never had a problem. Maybe the person who left the negative comment didn't measure their ingredients correctly.

I followed the recipe exactly and my peppernuts turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.
