Vanilla Nut Butter Biscuits with Raisins.
These vanilla biscuits have a delicious soft and chewy texture, and the perfect amount of sweetness. They are naturally sweetened with a little honey, and only contain a handful of simple ingredients. Perfect for an afternoon pick me up. Enjoy.
1 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup organic peanut butter (you can use any type of nut butter)
3 tbsp honey
1/2 cup raisins (or any dried fruit of your choice)
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking soda
Preheat the oven to 180°C, and line a baking tray with baking paper.
In a food processor add the almonds, peanut butter, honey, raisins, vanilla and baking soda. Process until a dough like texture is achieved (about 1 minute). You may need to scrape down the sides a little.
Using your hands, form small balls and place them on to the baking paper, a couple of centimeters apart as they expand a little.
Using a fork or your fingers, press down on each ball to flatten in half.
Place in to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until nice and golden on the outside.
Makes around 16 medium sized cookies which will keep for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
