Can these be made with fresh pomegranate and soaked raw macadamia nuts?
I imagine they could, Anita. You'll want to adjust your other dry ingredients to account for the moisture from the pomegranate. If you try it, come back and let us know how it works.
I'm grateful to know what to do with the bag of pomegranate powder Ive left unopened for months! And for the wonderful generosity of folks like you in the virtual world these days. Thank you, Dr Ritamarie!
