Chocolate Chip and Oat Biscuits

Chocolate chip and oat biscuits are that treat that is totally indulgent and loaded with health Wholefoods. I was inspired by regular choc chip biscuits then evolved the ingredients to use the tastier and healthier Wholefood alternatives.

Enjoying health food is so easy. We have been over dosed on simple white sugars and low quality flavours. Think about it for a moment; Wholefoods are more complex with more interesting and real flavours and these make food more interesting. Embrace the deeper and fuller flavours of eating Wholefood snacks and meals.
