Amaretti biscuits

These little bites of heaven are traditionally made with apricot kernels or bitter almond paste.

Healthy oat biscuits

Packed to the brim with rolled oats, seeds, dark chocolate and sultanas, these biscuits have loads of flavour but are also a better-for-you alternative to bought or sugar-laden biscuits. How to make healthier oat biscuits: key tips There isn’t any butter in these biscuits. Instead honey and coconut oil are melted together and provide the liquid to bind all of the dry ingredients together. Make sure that the honey mixture has cooled before adding, so that you don’t accidentally ‘cook’ the flour too soon or melt the choc chips. Drop a tablespoonful of the biscuit mixture for each biscuit onto the trays, leaving a little room for spreading. Place both the trays into the oven at the same time, and then switch them around halfway through cooking so that the biscuits cook evenly. The biscuits will still be quite soft after baking, so leave them to cool and harden up on the trays for about 10 minutes, before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Key ingredients in this healthier oat biscuits recipe To reap the most health benefits from these biscuits, opt for rolled oats (over quick oats), use wholemeal flour instead of regular flour, and go for dark choc chips in place of milk or white choc chips. Almond meal keeps these bikkies on the healthier side and also makes them deliciously moist. Sultanas, the choc chips and honey provide all the sweetness you’ll want in these oat biscuits – there is no need for added sugar. After some more healthier snack ideas?

Buttermilk biscuits

These “biscuits” are an American invention. Cousin to the British scone or dumpling, they are made by rolling and folding layers into buttermilk dough, just like rough puff pastry. When baked, they puff up beautifully. Traditionally served with a creamy gravy or dishes like chicken casserole, they are used to ‘mop up’ any delicious sauce left on your plate!
