With the Late Late Toy Show on tonight, why not prepare some warm and comforting treats — especially one that’s crunchy, chocolate-drizzled and filled with the warm spice of stem ginger. ✨
These Dark Chocolate, Ginger & Hazelnut Oaty Biscuits are a beautiful mix of sweet, nutty and gently spiced. Made with Flahavan’s Jumbo Oats, they come together quickly and make the perfect little treat for sharing… or enjoying with a quiet cup of tea as the Toy Show magic begins! 🎄
Serves 18 | Takes 25 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
150g Flahavan’s Jumbo Porridge Oats
100g sprouted buckwheat flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
50g toasted blanched hazelnuts, chopped
200g hazelnut butter
120g tahini
90ml coconut oil
60ml ginger syrup (from stem ginger)
60ml maple syrup
90g stem ginger, finely chopped
100g Butlers 70% Dark Chocolate, finely chopped
METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 180°C / Gas Mark 4 and line a large baking tray with parchment.
Combine the Flahavan’s Jumbo Oats, buckwheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon and chopped hazelnuts in a large bowl.
In a saucepan, gently melt together the hazelnut butter, tahini, coconut oil, ginger syrup and maple syrup.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir well, folding in the chopped stem ginger.
Roll into 18 small balls, place on the tray and gently flatten with a fork. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden on the edges.
Allow to cool for 15 minutes on the tray, then transfer to a rack. Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over hot water, then drizzle over each biscuit.
Let the chocolate set completely — then enjoy, or wrap them up as a little homemade gift. 🍪💛
