Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 10 biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift the coconut flour to remove any lumps. This will help ensure a smooth texture in your biscuits.
- Add baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon to the coconut flour. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup. Stir until the wet ingredients are thoroughly blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix until a cohesive dough forms. The mixture will be slightly crumbly but should hold together when pressed.
- Let the dough rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb moisture, which will help bind the ingredients.
- Using your hands, gently form the dough into 10 equal-sized biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each biscuit.
- Use a fork to gently press down on the top of each biscuit, creating a classic biscuit texture and helping them cook evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the biscuits are firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. These biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Tips
- Sift the Coconut Flour: Always sift your coconut flour before mixing to eliminate lumps and ensure a smooth dough. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect biscuit texture.
- Moisture Absorption: Allow the dough to rest for 3-5 minutes after mixing. This gives the coconut flour time to absorb moisture, resulting in a better consistency for your biscuits.
- Uniform Size: When forming the biscuits, try to make them equal in size. This ensures they bake evenly and look appealing when served.
- Fork Technique: Press down gently on each biscuit with a fork before baking. This not only creates a classic look but also helps them cook more evenly and achieve that perfect golden crust.
- Storage Tips: To keep your biscuits fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing them and reheating as needed!
