- 1 1/2 TBSP Turbinado Sugar (or Brown Sugar)***

*Avocado Oil is a healthy choice for high heat oils, but use Vegetable or Canola if that is what you have on hand.
***I use Plant-based Butter (Avocado Oil based) because I am Lactose Intolerant.
***Turbinado Sugar is a raw brown sugar. It is has a wonderful flavor and always stays soft…no sugar rocks for me!
