Ingredients
  

  • 150 g Flax Farm Ground Linseed (flax)
  • 100 g granulated sweetener I have used erythritol and xyltiol, also works mixed 75/25 with yacon syrup
  • 115 g salted butter slightly warmed and softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 rounded tsp baking powder
  • 1/2-1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2-1 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 75 g whole linseeds

Instructions
 

  • Mix all the ingredients and combine well.
  • Place walnut sized pieces on a lined baking tray and flatten slightly with a fork.
  • Bake in a 170 centigrade oven for 12 minutes, take care not to leave in too long.
  • Cool on a rack and store in airtight container. Mine weren't stored as they got eaten too quickly but I would store in the fridge as they are sugar free,
  • "Please be aware that linseeds are VERY good for your bowels. As in VERY GOOD. As in DON’T EAT TOO MANY." This is partly because of the effect some of these granulated sweeteners have and if you are not used to linseed you should start with just a modest helping and build up.

Notes

Remember if you are using xylitol or similar these biscuits must not be given to dogs, don't worry we have dog friendly recipes to come.
