With 1 1/3 cup sugar already in there, I would definitely go for unsweetened!
It doesn’t have to be unsweetened, but it can be, just make sure it is unflavored, I don’t think vanilla would be a great flavor here.
should the soymilk be unsweetened?
How much should this rise? How full should my pan be?
I use unsweetened Almond Milk instead of Soy milk, will that work as well?
You can try using an all purpose gluten free flour mix and honey.
I don’t eat sugar or wheat. What can I use to substitute for these ingredients?
