Serving Size and Yield

Makes approximately 20 biscuits.

Preparation and Cooking Time

Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Cooling Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup (90g) rolled oats
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (120ml) coconut oil, melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
150g vegan dark chocolate, chopped

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
Combine the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Melt the vegan dark chocolate in a microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.
Dip each cooled biscuit halfway into the melted chocolate and place them back on the wire rack to set.
Allow the chocolate to harden completely before serving.

Additional Notes

For a nutty twist, add 1/4 cup of chopped nuts to the dough. You can also substitute maple syrup with agave syrup if preferred. Store biscuits in an airtight container for up to a week.
