Pink Butterfly Raw Biscuits

This is a healthy raw biscuit recipe. The biscuit and filling are very easy to make but the assembly process is a little messy but fun to do with the kids. I made Butterflies with Pink filling and for the boys out there I made Stars, which was suppose to have a blue filling but looks more purple! Trick when making these biscuits is to keep everything very cold.






60g brazil nuts
60g cup pepitas
2-3 tbsp cacao powder
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt

1. Add nuts and seeds to TMX bowl.
Speed 9/ approx 30 sec until cumbly

2. Add remaining ingredients except maple syrup
Add maple syrup slowly once blades are running. Batter should come together easily without being too wet
Speed 6 / approx 10 sec 

3. Put mixture on cutting board and roll out 
Using cookie cutters cut shapes out and place onto a plate (even numbers - approx 12 depending on your cutter size) Set cookies aside in fridge

Pink Filling Ingredients
1 banana
1/2 cup frozen raspberries (at room temp) (for the blue/purple ones I tried blueberries)
4 tbsp coconut oil

1. Place all ingredients into TMX bowl and blend till creamy
Speed 4 / 10 sec and then scrape bowl and repeat a couple of times

2. Pour onto a cutting board and put into freezer

3. Once set, cut shapes and assemble biscuits. Once done they are best kept in the freezer until they are ready to eat

  1. hey just a thought- would it be worth making a large sandwich with the cookie mixture and icing and then cutting out shapes?

  2. Might work but the filling might come out the sides when you are cutting it. Worth a try, but make sure it has been in freezer for a little while first
