Here it is...magic fructose free biscuits ;)
A little note first - since quitting sugar I find that I can taste sweetness in many more foods and I only need around half the amount of sweetener in baking. If you are still eating sugar or still cutting back, you may find you want a little more sweetness - my advice is to try it as is and add a little more if you feel it needs it.
This was my first batch, but I've listed some variations below that I think would work really well.
3/4 cup almond meal
3/4 cup plain wholemeal flour
pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil
1/4 cup rice malt syrup
Combine dry ingredients, add coconut oil & rice malt syrup and combine to a dough. I do this very quickly in my food processor.
Form into a log, wrap and refrigerate for 30 mins to firm up. Slice into rounds, flatten slightly & bake in a moderate oven for 10-15 mins until golden. Cool on a wire rack.
* Check the ingredients on your rice malt syrup - the only ingredient should be brown rice.
Variations:
Swap the cinnamon for other spices - mixed spice, ginger etc
Swap the cinnamon for the zest of an orange or lemon
Add some cacao powder for chocolate biscuits - add a splash of cold water if the dough is too dry
Make a double batch and freeze one of the logs. When you want biscuits, simply slice & cook from frozen!
Enjoy!
