Delicious dairy-free chocolate biscuits

A healthier option for a sweet treat!

Ingredients

175g organic oats

60g organic sunflower seeds

20g organic cocoa powder/cacao powder

40g organic coconut sugar

100ml organic maple syrup

65g melted dairy free butter or 65ml coconut oil

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180c/160c fan and line two baking trays with parchment paper

• Blitz the oats and sunflower seeds together in a food processor until you have a flour like consistency

• Tip the mixture into a large bowl and stir in the cocoa or cacao powder and sugar followed by the maple syrup and melted butter or coconut oil

• Combine the ingredients into a firm ball and leave in the fridge for 15 minutes

• Then use your hands to make small golf size balls of mixture which you can place on the baking tray and use a fork to gently push down on the ball to create a biscuit shape

  (The other option is to place parchment paper over the mixture and use a rolling pin to flatten it before using cookie cutters. I don’t find this works so well)

• Bake for 11-12 minutes before leaving them firm up on the trays before transferring to a wire rack to cool
