Chewy raisin and oat biscuits

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife October 31, 2018January 15, 2019
October 31, 2018January 15, 2019

We spent some time indoors over the weekend as it was quite wet here on the Gold Coast to I spent some time in the kitchen doing some baking. I made these delicious raisin and oat biscuits along with my White Chocolate and Raspberry Muffins. These biscuits are so easy to put together and since they have hardly any sugar and include wholemeal flour I like to think that they are a little bit healthy too!

Usually, I add raisins to this mix but I only had a bag of mixed fruits when I made this batch, they still tasted fabulous though. If you are not a fan of raisins or dried fruits you could add chocolate chips or nuts.

These raisin and oat biscuits make for a great breakfast snack on the go or a healthier alternative to other bikkies to have with your tea or coffee. These are freezer friendly which makes them perfect for bulk-baking for lunch boxes!

I don’t have cornflakes, can you think of anything I can use instead? I do have dried coconut flakes? Might be too coconutty with that much coconut though!

Just made these with mashed banana, coconut, spices, pumpkin, sesame and chia seeds. This is my go-to recipe for my little girls preschool lunches. My resolution for this year has been to stop buying ‘kiddy’ packaged food from the supermarket. These are the muesli bar alternative. Thank-you!

SR flour is self raising flour

Reply
Pat July 20, 2015 - 9:18 AM

In the U.S it is called multi purpose flour.

Michelle September 24, 2015 - 9:49 PM

What can I use instead of SR wholemeal flour?

Wasn’t really a fan of these, I may add a bit of honey or cinnamon for a bit of extra flavour next time.

I thought about introducing my review of the Miele I thought about introducing my review of the Miele Triflex HXI Pro with a vacuum joke… but then realised they always suck (sorry, I couldn’t help myself – lol!)
 
In all honesty though, I have a lot of boxes I like ticked when picking the perfect vacuum cleaner. Visit the link in my bio to see if Miele’s first handstick vacuum managed to tick all these boxes for me!

White Chocolate and Cranberry Cookies 🍪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This recipe was contributed by Tracey (a lovely member of our community!). She suggests using an ice cream scoop to shape the cookies, which should give them a lovely rippled texture on top. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The base recipe without the white chocolate and cranberries can be used for any alternative ingredients like dark choc bits and macadamias. The full recipe is on my blog! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

PS - I would suggest adjusting the sugar quantities to your own tastes if you prefer cookies to be less sweet! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
