In a hurry? Gotcha covered. These biscuits are as easy as 1-2-3. And they have no butter or oil in them. Not that oil is a bad thing (in fact, coconut oil is very healthy for you), it’s just that oil tends to get everywhere every time I use it and cleaning it up is a pain. Now, these biscuits aren’t fancy spancy- so I wouldn’t recommend serving them at Thanksgiving dinner, but they are still really good to have with a week dinner or for a snack 🙂
Applesauce Biscuits
(Makes 6 biscuits)
Ingredients:
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup applesauce or homemade applesauce
1 tsp baking powder
1-4 tbsp water (depends on how watery/chunky your applesauce is)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine the flour, applesauce, baking powder, and 1 tbsp water. Add SMALL amounts of water (if needed) until a dough ball is formed. Form 6 mini dough balls, place on a greased cookie sheet, and squash down slightly. Bake for 10-12 minutes.

This kinda resembles scones in appearance…Would love to try sometime..Let me tell you something that would be interesting to you.I live in Kerala(a small state in Kerala) where coconut oil is used for cooking for almost everything we make…

Thank you 🙂 Ha- They do look like scones! And how lucky! I’m constantly buying coconut oil. I love the taste it gives off!

I make my Grandmother’s applesauce every Fall so I always appreciate new recipes using this favorite ingredient.

That’s great! I’m sure your family’s applesauce would taste great in this!

I love how simple this is! I bet it would work with oat flour too!!
