These cookies are delicious! Similar texture to the Byron bay cookies that have been around for years. I have found that using coconut oil has dramatically changed the texture of gluten free biscuits … they are finally something to look forward to as opposed to the only option in keeping hunger at bay.
I added almond meal to up the protein and flavour but obviously that makes them no good for school … am working on a nut free one for school.
