Ingredients
- 110g oat flour*
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp brown sugar**
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
- 1-2 tbsp milk of choice
- 7 tsp nut butter or seed butter I used Bulk chocolate brownie peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180C/160C fan/350F.
- Mix the oats, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl, then pour in the oil, milk and maple syrup. Mix to create a dough (if the dough is too soft, place in the fridge for 15-20 minutes).
- Roll out between 2 sheets of baking paper, then use a round cookie cutter to cut out the biscuits (I used a 5cm round cutter). Use a smaller heart cutter to cut out hearts in half of the cookies.
- Arrange on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow to cool completely before filling.
- To assemble - spread about a tsp of your chosen filling over the bottom cookie, and top with a heart cut out cookie.
Notes
* Make your own oat flour by blending plain oats into a fine flour in the food processor. Use gluten-free oats to make this recipe gluten-free.
** Other granulated sweeteners like white or coconut sugar will also work.
