Ingredients:
- 120g butter
- 50 g coconut oil
- 100g golden syrup
- 1 tspn bicarbonate of soda
- 100g GF Oats
- 150g Gluten Free Flour
- 70 g Rapadura Sugar
- 50g desiccated coconut
- 25 g cacao
- 25g cacao nibs
Method:
In a pot gently melt butter, coconut oil and syrup together. Add in bicarbonate soda. Add in oats, flour, sugar, coconut, cacao and cacao nibs. Mix all ingredients together until thoroughly combined. If you think it is a little dry, add a tbspn of water until you have a consistency that you can easily roll into balls. Place evenly onto a lined baking tray and bake for approximately 10-12 mins in a 160oC oven until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool, then transfer to a wire rack if they last long enough. I made about 24 biscuits from this batch.
