Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons brown or white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoon coconut oil melted at room temp
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ tablespoon almond milk
For the Topping
  • ½ cup dark chocolate

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 356 F.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine oat flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
    1 cup oat flour, ¼ teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons brown or white sugar, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon baking powder
  3. Add melted coconut oil, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix into a soft dough. If too sticky, chill for 15-20 minutes.
    2 tablespoons maple syrup, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 ½ tablespoon almond milk, 2 tablespoon coconut oil
  4. Roll the dough between 2 sheets of baking paper to about 6x12 inches.
  5. Cut out biscuits with a 2 ½ inch round cutter. Re-roll scraps to make about 6 biscuits total.
  6. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-17 minutes until golden.
  7. Let biscuits cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Melt dark chocolate in the microwave in short bursts, stirring in between.
  9. Stir chopped nuts into the melted chocolate until well coated.
    ½ cup dark chocolate, ⅓ cup almonds or toasted peanuts
  10. Spoon the chocolate-nut mixture over each cooled biscuit.
  11. Chill in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to set the topping.
  12. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

  • To Store. Once fully cooled and set, keep the biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. If your kitchen is very warm, you can store them in the fridge to keep the chocolate firm.
  • To Freeze. Freeze the plain baked biscuits (without the chocolate topping) in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature and add the topping fresh.
  • To Make Ahead. You can prepare the dough and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking. Or bake the biscuits a day ahead and top them with chocolate right before serving.
