Instructions
Preheat the oven to 170°C (325°F) and line a biscuit tray with baking paper.
Add the rolled oats, desiccated coconut, oat flour, and rapadura sugar to a bowl and mix well to combine.
Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over a low heat, then add in the maple syrup and stir to lightly mix it with the oil and warm it. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set aside briefly.
Add the boiling water to the baking soda to dissolve it then add to the oil/maple syrup mix. Stir until it froths up, then immediately add the liquid mix to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir well to combine. (see note 1)
Take roughly 2 heaped Tablespoons of the biscuit mix and roll it into a ball. Place on the biscuit tray and flatten with the bottom of a glass or your hands. Repeat until all the biscuit mix has been used.
Place the tray in the oven and cook for 12 to 14 minutes or until the biscuits are golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before enjoying!
Notes
Note 1: If the baking soda/water mix doesn't froth up when added to the oil and maple syrup, just put the saucepan back on the heat and stir vigorously to help it along. You can see the frothy action in the quick video above.Also be sure to check out the notes in the FAQ section in the post above if you find your mix is either too wet or too dry. This will ensure you have biscuit success every time!These will last for a couple of days in an airtight container, but I'm willing to bet they'll be gone by the end of the day...
