Ingredients

1½ cups (170g) quick oats (if you only have rolled oats, just quickly wizz them in a blender)
¾ cup (115g) spelt flour (you could use any flour)
½ cup (30g) LSA
⅓ cup (50g) coconut sugar (add double if you need sweetness)
1½ - 2 teaspoons (4-6g) gingerbread spice mix
3 tablespoons (32g) chia seeds
½ teaspoon baking powder
A nice big pinch of salt flakes
¼ cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted (you could use coconut oil)
1 egg (you could sub in a flax egg or leave out entirely for a crumbly biscuit)
4 tablespoons water
Some melted chocolate to drizzle over the top (optional)

Directions

Preheat an oven to 180ºC and line a baking tray with baking paper.
Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the wet ingredients and mix well - it will eventually come together. Cover and let the mixture sit for 10 minutes.
Roll the mixture between your hands until you have 12 biscuits. Place on the tray and into the oven for about 18 minutes. Remove, let them cool and drizzle over melted chocolate.

Food processor instructions

If you have a food processor, use the non-cutting blade and pop all the dry ingredients into the bowl. Pulse until combined. Add all the wet ingredients and pulse or mix on low speed until the mixture comes together. The mixture will be quite moist and tacky. Leave to sit for 10 minutes and follow Step 2 above.
