Quick, easy and delicious – our Thermomix Oat Biscuits tick all the right boxes!
I love this recipe because it’s so incredibly versatile. It’s a basic oat biscuit recipe and then you can add in any nuts, chocolate chips or dried fruit you like.
Honestly the combinations are endless! Some of my faves include apricot and white chocolate, dark chocolate and raisin, or even just chocolate chips. Yum!

These were a slight failure for me as they turned out flat, but I have to say that I did make them GF for my family. Though they didn’t look nice, they were AMAZING literally delish…
Absolutely great… easy to make… fast as… and despite them being flat, they were still very eatable.
Delicious!! Replace all sugar with rapadura sugar and halve mix time and hey presto!! Just double cook time. Or a little more, used as smeg oven so add 4 min more.
Just made my first batch…very good.
Reduced sugar both white & brown to 100g each & still plenty sweet enough…may use 75g each next time.
Added dried sultanas,Cranberries & a few chopped walnuts…delish. Dont think they will last long enough to take a photo..super yummy & chewy! Thank you for your recipie 🙂
Way too sweet and completely flat! I had high hopes.
Mine turned out completely flat and all connected to each other but I think it’s because I made the balls too big. Anyway……they are DELICIOUS! I just cut it out like a slice and the family LOVE it. Yeah it’s sweet but it tastes like toffee….sooooo yummy.

Hi Debbie, that could also have something to do with the weather (if it was hot when you made them). You can chill the dough for 30 minutes before cooking if you’d like them a bit less flat! So glad you enjoyed them still!!
Can I do these without egg? I am desperate for egg free recipes(cooking for a friend who cannot have egg) not easy. I have googled substitutes but it all depends on what I am making as to what substitute can be used….apparently. This egg free baking/ cooking is not easy. (Also busy with gluten free dishes for my daughter)

Hi Lizel, I’m sorry but I’ve never made these egg-free! Good luck!!! xx
Hi, can these be frozen?
I was wondering if u knew why the biscuit didn’t go flat made it twice in case I thought i made a mistake. But both time weren’t flat. I have made them before and had them flat before.

Hi Elia, hmm that is very strange given you’ve made them flat before (and yes, they go flat for me too!). I really don’t know – if you’ve followed the recipe, they should go flat. All I can suggest is the usual – make sure your oven is preheated, no need to chill this dough, perhaps use a little less mixture in the dough balls. That is so strange though! The butter/sugar/flour ratio should definitely make flat cookies!
