Ingredients
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 50 grams dried cranberries
- 50 grams pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Stir together to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
Step 3
In a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the butter-sugar mixture into the dry ingredients and add the vanilla extract and egg. Mix until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky to the touch.
Step 5
Fold in the dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon, scoop out balls of dough and place them onto the prepared baking trays, leaving space between each for spreading.
Step 7
Gently flatten each ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to form a biscuit shape.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the trays from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the trays for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your nut-free cereal biscuits as a delicious snack or a breakfast treat!
