Would almond flour work as a good replacement for the soy flour?

In this recipe no because almond flour is too sticky.You have to be able to roll these out like my cinnamon buns ;)

Darn!  I bought soy flour once years ago.  Tried it in one recipe and through away the rest. Do the other ingredients cover up the soy flavor very well?

If the temperature is too high it turns bitter.But for items like scones and cinnamon rolls its a must.I put a few recipes in the Fat to Skinny Bakery because Sherripies son has nut allergies.The nut flours were not a option.I rarely use it but when I do I lighten it up to reduce the carb count with coconut,oat fiber or almond flour.For items that have to be rolled out that are sticky you need soy. ;)
