    I have never made these (but love eating them), but would a small amount of gelatin be useful for adding moisture? Or would that ruin the texture?

      I’m not vegetarian or anything but it would feel weird adding gelatine to a vegan dish. On the other hand it’s a very interesting idea. Maybe adding soaked chia, basil or linen seeds would help. They can store a lot of moisture.
