Instructions

Do you sometimes get upset when you go to buy biscuits that say NO ADDED SUGAR, but then you find out that they added artificial sugar? Don’t worry, I do it as well. Even with years of conditioning to carefully avoid the tricks of the supermarket and reading all the labels. Having said this, did you know that when we eat sugar we release chemicals in our brain that make us feel good?

Bottom line, this is a great recipe, it has lots of sugar when you consider all the dried fruit. That said you at least know how much sugar you are eating. Because none has been added. These biscuits are naturally sweet, THEREFORE guilt free.

Step 1

For the fruit rolls, first put the applesauce, the orange juice and zest in a bowl, add the dried fruits, mix and soak for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 170 ° C top / bottom heat and have a baking rack lined with baking paper ready.

Step 3

Then add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix everything thoroughly so that a compact dough is formed. This is best done by hand and with gloves.

Step 4

Shape the dough into 11 rolls of 80 g each, place on the oven rack and bake in the oven for approx. 35 minutes. Then leave to cool on a wire rack.

Tip: The dried fruits and nuts can be exchanged as you wish.

The colonic was one of the best experience I’ve ever had. Ela was absolutely fantastic. She is very gentle and really professional. I was feeling at ease knowing I was in perfect hands at that time. Later on I was given some good advice about a liver cleanse.
