Notes
*Stevia - The stevia I used is a 1:2 ratio of stevia to sugar. If the granulated sweetener you're using is a 1:1 ratio of sugar to sweetener, use 150g of it instead of 75g.
*Flour - Sub the same amount of all-purpose or plain flour with the addition of 1 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp baking soda.
