Dairy Free Sugar Free Gluten Free Baking

Peanut Butter Biscuits
Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups (250g) almond meal/flour
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (no additives)
• 1/2 cup raw honey OR substitute agave for a vegan version
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Method
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Stirring through the peanut butter and honey can be a challenge; I find it easier to melt down the two together in a pot over the stove first, then mix through the dry ingredients. Roll into balls, flatten with a fork and bake at 160 for around 8-10 minutes (til slightly browned). This makes around 24.
MAKE THEM SMALL SO THEY COOK EVENLY. THEY DONT RISE OR SPREAD.
