What are we cooking today?
These biscuits are a great option for snacking between meals as they're healthy and filling. Equally suitable for lunch with your favourite topping.
Getting started
- Preheat the oven to 175℃.
Finely grind the flaxseed in a food processor if you're using whole seeds.
Note: Golden flaxseed has a milder taste compared to the brown flaxseed.Pour in the melted coconut oil and process well.
Slowly add water and form a sticky, moist dough.
Use your wet hands to place the dough in a baking dish (about 8x8 inch / ~ 20x20 cm for 8 pieces) lined with baking paper. Use your fingers (or a rolling pin) to press and flatten the dough evenly.
Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes.
After the dough seems dry and golden, remove it from the oven. Place it on a cutting board together with the baking paper and cut into 8 equal pieces using a knife or a pizza cutter.
Place back in the oven for another 3-5 minutes. When done, set aside to cool down. Keep in an airtight container and enjoy!
Annabelle's tips
I generally make double the ingredients as they keep well in an airtight container for up to a week.
They're delicious with guacamole, tomato and a sprinkle of salt and pepper!
