Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup wholemeal spelt (you could use half plain flour), 2/3 cup dessicated coconut, 2 tablespoons virgin coconut oil, 2 tablespoons oilve oil (you could use sunflower or a similar oil), 1/3 cup rapadura sugar or raw sugar, 1 tablespoon molasses, 1 teaspoon bi-carb soda, 3 tablespoons boiling water.
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 150C, prepare baking trays, either grease or use baking parchment.
In a large bowl combine, oats, flour, coconut and sugar, mix well. Place oils and molasses in a saucepan and heat till warm. Oil and molasses does not combine in the same way as butter and golden syrup does when heated. Meanwhile boil your jug, mix the bi-carb and boiling water in a small bowl. Take the molasses and oil mix off the heat, add the bi-carb and water, mix well, watch out it dosen't bubble up and overflow the pan. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and mix well. Take heaped teaspoons of mix, roll into a ball, place on baking tray and flatten with your fingers. Don't place the biscuits too close together as the will spread a little. Bake in a slow oven for approximately 15 minutes or till golden. Allow to cool on trays for 10 minutes then cool completly on a cake rack. Makes about 32 biscuits.
Enjoy
