Indulge in a healthy treat with these Apple-Oat No-Sugar Biscuits, a perfect snack for those looking to enjoy something sweet without the guilt. Made without sugar, flour, or eggs, these biscuits are not only delicious but also packed with the goodness of oats, nuts, and fruits. Here’s how to whip up this easy and nutritious snack.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (250 ml) oatmeal
- 240 g apple purée (unsweetened)
- 50 g almonds, roughly chopped
- 50 g walnuts, roughly chopped
- 50 g dried cranberries
- 50 g raisins
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Start by warming your oven to 180°C (350°F). Prepare a baking tray by covering it with parchment paper to avoid any sticking.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the oatmeal, apple purée, chopped almonds, chopped walnuts, dried cranberries, and raisins. Drizzle with the olive oil. Stir the mixture until everything is thoroughly combined. The apple purée will act as a binder, holding the ingredients together.
- Shape the Biscuits: Using your hands or a spoon, take small portions of the mixture and shape them into biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking tray. If the mixture is too sticky, you can wet your hands slightly to make the shaping easier.
- Bake: Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are firm and lightly golden on the edges.
- Cool Down: Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help them set and become crisp.
- Enjoy: Once cooled, your Apple-Oat No-Sugar Biscuits are ready to be enjoyed! They make a great snack for tea time, breakfast on the go, or a healthy treat for kids.
Tips:
- You can customize these biscuits by adding different nuts, seeds, or dried fruits according to your preference.
- If you prefer your biscuits a bit sweeter, consider adding a natural sweetener like mashed banana or a splash of maple syrup to the mixture.
- Store the biscuits in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crisp for several days.
Enjoy your wholesome and delicious Apple-Oat No-Sugar Biscuits, a healthy alternative that satisfies the sweet tooth without any added sugar, flour, or eggs!
