Prep Time10 mins
Cook Time12 mins
Servings: 12 Biscuits

Ingredients

  • 70 g Butter (you can sub coconut oil for dairy free)
  • ¼ cup Honey
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • ¼ cup Coconut sugar (Or you could use, any sugar, more honey, maple syrup, agave, date syrup)
  • ½ cup Gluten free or buckwheat flour
  • 1 cup Rolled oats (we use quick cook oats, for gluten free – use gluten free oats if availbale, and tolerated, or quinoa flakes)
  • ½ cup Ground sunflower and / or pumpkin seeds OR almond meal if it doesn’t need to be nut free
  • ½ cup dessiccated coconut

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 190 deg (fan bake).
  • Melt the butter and honey in small pot. Stir togther. Add the baking soda and watch the magic happen! It will puff and rise. Stir for a minute while it reacts.
  • Combine with the rest of the ingredients and gently mix everything together.
  • The mix should feel sticky but hold together when you scoop with a spoon.
  • With wet hands gently shape into approx 12 balls and place them on a lined & greased baking tray. Flatten slightly with a fork, they may spread when baked.
  • Make sure the oven is well preheated before putting the biscuits in, as this helped to reduce any drastic spreading! Cook for 10 – 15 minutes or until they start to turn golden – keep a close eye on them – they can burn quickly! Take them out and let cool on the tray and then a baking rack for as long as you can torture yourself with them, then store in an airtight container if you don’t eat them all at once!
