Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). This ensures that the biscuits bake evenly and achieve the right texture.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, combine oats, whole wheat flour (atta), baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients well to ensure even distribution.
Step 3: Cream the Butter and Sugar
In a separate bowl, beat together softened butter and the chosen sweetener until light and fluffy. This process incorporates air into the mixture, helping the biscuits to be light.
Step 4: Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing until you achieve a dough-like consistency. Do not over-mix; stop once everything is combined.
Step 5: Shape the Biscuits
Take small portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each ball as they will spread when baking.
Step 6: Flatten the Dough Balls
Gently press the dough balls with your fingers or a fork to flatten them slightly. This will help them bake evenly.
Step 7: Bake the Biscuits
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Step 8: Cool the Biscuits
Once baked, remove the tray from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
