Cinnamon Carrot Biscuit with Matcha Chocolate

No trying to be a food cop, but as a mum to 2 young girls, I know I am bearing the torch to their pathways to health eating. 

So yes, we rarely buy biscuits from supermarkets but I try to still allow them to have biscuits and interestingly, after a few years of persistence (they are 9 & 7), this healthier eating is paying off. They naturally choose to eat healthier snacks. 

These Cinnamon Carrot biscuits are lovely treats. It is a softer type of biscuit. Adding the Matcha choc drizzle means they still feel they have some naughty ingredients, not too weird comparing to their peers!!!

My friend #Thermocook was used to make this super quick to make. Makes about 20 small biscuits.
