Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick silicone mat.
  2. In a food processor or blender, combine drained chickpeas and pumpkin puree. Blend until mostly smooth but still slightly textured to retain bite.
  3. Whisk the whole-wheat flour, baking powder, dried Italian herbs and the listed tablespoon of ground flaxseed together.
  4. Add the chickpea-pumpkin puree mixture to dry ingredients, then stir in olive oil until combined.
  5. Gradually add oat milk one tablespoon at a time, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms that holds shape but is not overly wet.
  6. With lightly floured hands, shape dough into small 1.5-inch biscuit rounds. Place evenly spaced on baking sheet.
  7. Bake 18-20 minutes until biscuits are cooked through, lightly golden on edges, and remain soft inside.
  8. Cool biscuits on wire rack before serving. Store leftovers airtight in refrigerator up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
