  1. I did exactly what you printed; the only thing was you said sweetener of choice; I am assuming after my fiasco that you meant a liquid one. I used my monkfruit and it never combined; I ended up using more orange juice, a teaspoon and still it would not mix as a dough; then I added a half a teaspoon more of coconut oil and it just would not stick; so I added a 1/8 of water and it helped but it still was dry. I just dumped it into a mini loaf pan and pray it will come out.
