Ingredients
- 2 cups oat flour
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/2 cup barley flour
- 8 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

- 2/3 cup currants
- 1/2 cup barley malt or brown rice syrup
- 1 cup plain soymilk
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven
Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for baking your biscuits to a golden-brown perfection. -
-
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, cornmeal, rice flour, and barley flour. To this, add the baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground cloves. Stir well to ensure that all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed. -
Add the Seeds and Currants
Incorporate the sunflower seeds and currants into the flour mixture. Give it a good mix, so the seeds and currants are well distributed throughout the dry ingredients. -
Create a Well and Add Wet Ingredients
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour in the vegetable oil and barley malt (or brown rice syrup). Gently mix these ingredients together. -
Incorporate the Soymilk and Milk
Gradually add the plain soymilk and milk into the mixture. Stir the dough with your hands or use an electric mixer on medium speed until the dough just comes together. Be cautious not to overmix; you want the dough to be moist but not too wet—just enough to hold together without being crumbly. -
Shape and Bake the Biscuits
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop approximately 2 tablespoons of dough onto a lightly greased baking tray, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Place the tray in the preheated oven. -
Bake to Perfection
Bake the biscuits for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The biscuits should be crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. -
Cool and Serve
Once baked, allow the biscuits to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature with your favorite spread or simply on their own.
