EQUIPMENT
Silicone bite-sized mold

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 310°F

  1. Mix the ground flax seeds with water and let sit for a couple of minutes.
  2. Mix the oat flour, applesauce, greens and rosemary together and add the flax + soaking water.
  3. Spoon approx 1/8 tsp of kelp or dulse into the bottom of the mold cups* and spread evenly.
  4. Fill each cup with batter to the tops, pressing in firmly with fingers.

*Alternatively add the kelp or dulse right into the batter.

Bake approx 16-18 minutes, until the biscuits are pulling away slightly from the edges. To keep the green colour, don’t let the biscuits get to the browning stage.

Will keep at room temperature for a couple of days, a few weeks in the fridge, or can be frozen.
