Ingredients

Biscuits⠀

  • 300 g Gluten free rolled oats⠀
  • 170 g Coconut oil⠀
  • 6 tbsp (90g) Maple syrup⠀
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract⠀
  • 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt ⠀

Filling ⠀

  • 200 g Smooth roasted peanut butter, i used manilife
  • 35 g 70% Dark chocolate, chopped. I used ombar
  • 50 g Coconut cream⠀
  • 3 tsp Maple syrup⠀
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • Pinch of Himalayan salt⠀

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180c
  • First crack on with the filling. Break the chocolate into a medium heatproof bowl. Sit it over a pan of barely simmering water (a bain marie) and allow the chocolate to melt, give it a occasional stir. Make sure not to overcook the chocolate, we don't want any grainy bits!⠀
  • Once melted bung in the rest of the filling ingredients. Stir till fully combined. Pop in the fridge to firm up whilst you get on with the biscuits.
  • Put the coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and salt into a large bowl. Mix with a hand held mixer till combined. Add in 3/4 of the oats and mix again for a minute or so until the oats are coarse and stodgy. Add in the remaining oats and stir by hand till all the oats are coated-this will give the biscuits a nice texture.
  • On a large baking tray, put 2 heaped tbsps of oat mix into a 3 inch round cutter. Using a small spoon, spread till it's in an even layer, then push down with the back of a spoon or a small cylinder item (I used my vanilla extract bottle!) till its tightly packed. Repeat until you all 16 biscuits on 2 trays.
  • Whack into a preheated oven on the mid/top shelf at 180c for 15-20 mins till golden. Leave for 5 mins on the tray, then move onto a cooling rack.
  • Once all biscuits have been baked and cooled it’s time to fill these bad boys. Turn 8 biscuits over and grab the filling out the fridge. Roll 1.5 tbsp of the filling into a ball with the palm of your hands. Place into the middle of a turned over biscuit, push down and mould till the whole biscuit base is covered. Pop a biscuit on top and your first ones finito! Repeat, sandwich and eat. ⠀
