You can substitute the honey with 2 tbsp of maple syrup or with ¼ cup coconut nectar.
The almond butter I used had a small amount of coconut in it as well and was delicious with the pecans and blueberries.
You can substitute the almond butter for any nut butter.You may have to adjust the ratio a little, depending on the thickness of your nut butter.
