Lemon and Poppy Seed Biscuits (Everything-Free)

If you're looking for a treat this Easter weekend that is something other than chocolate these might be for you. 

By the time I'm done telling you what's not in these biscuit/cookie creations you will be thinking well, what IS in them?? (Apart from lemon and poppy seeds.)

There is no:

• sugar
• dairy
• gluten
• flour
• nuts

What is the main ingredient? Chickpeas.

Stay with me here, just a second. You can't taste the chickpeas. But they do create the best flour like cookie texture for these biscuits. Trust me! 

Lemon and Poppy Seed Biscuits
(Sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, grain-free)
Makes about 20 biscuits.


Ingredients:

• 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• zest of 1 lemon
• juice of 1 1/2 lemons
• 1/4 cup sunflower seed butter  
• 1/4 cup flax seed
• 1/4 tsp pure stevia
• 1 Tbsp poppyseeds
• pinch of fine sea salt

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 180C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
• Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until thoroughly combined. 
• Spoon about half a tablespoon of the mixture onto lined baking tray and flatten down into a cookie shape with your fingers. The biscuits won't change shape in the oven.
• Bake for 20 minutes. 

When you pull these out of the oven you won't believe they are flourless. They are a bit crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfect!
