Ingredients

• 200 grams Rolled oats
• 100 grams Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 100 grams Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 60 milliliters Low-fat milk
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, low-fat milk, and olive oil until the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until it forms a dough. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.

Step 5

Using a tablespoon, scoop small portions of the dough and roll them into balls with your hands.

Step 6

Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each one. Press them down gently with a fork to form biscuits.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Store the cooled biscuits in an airtight container to maintain their crunchiness for up to a week.
