The Magic of Turmeric
Turmeric isn’t just a pretty spice; it’s packed with benefits. Its vibrant yellow hue is a sign of the powerful antioxidant curcumin, known for its anti-inflammatory properties. But in this recipe, turmeric does more than just lend its health benefits—it adds a unique, earthy flavor that pairs beautifully with cinnamon and ginger, creating a flavor profile that’s both exotic and comforting.

Ingredients That Shine
This recipe is designed with simplicity and health in mind. Here’s what you’ll need:
3 Ripe Bananas (325g): These will provide natural sweetness and a soft texture.
1/3 cup Nondairy Milk: For a creamy consistency without dairy.
1/4 cup Molasses (80g): This is optional but adds a rich, deep sweetness. If you prefer, you can substitute with maple syrup or honey.
1 tsp Real Natural Turmeric Latte Powder: For that beautiful golden color and health benefits.
1 tsp Cinnamon: To add warmth and a hint of sweetness.
1 tsp Real Natural Ginger: For a zesty kick.
1/4 tsp Salt: To balance the flavours.
1 tsp Baking Powder: To help the biscuits rise and become light and fluffy.
1/2 cup Tapioca Starch (60g): Helps to bind the ingredients together and gives the biscuits a pleasant chew.
3 cups Almond Flour (330g): The base of the biscuit, offering a nutty flavor and tender crumb.
Baking Your Golden Biscuits
Blend & Mix: Start by blending the ripe bananas, nondairy milk, and molasses (if using) until smooth. Add the turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, salt, baking powder, tapioca starch, and almond flour. Blend until all ingredients are well combined. You’ll have a thick, aromatic batter.
Spoon & Space: Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave space between each spoonful as the biscuits will spread out during baking. Depending on your pan size, you might need to bake in two batches.
Bake to Perfection: Place the pan in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) and bake for about 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them; they’re done when the edges turn a light golden brown.
Cool & Enjoy: Let the biscuits cool on the pan for at least 10 minutes before removing them. This helps them set properly and makes them easier to handle.
Serving Suggestions
These biscuits are delicious on their own, but they’re even better paired with a warm mug of cacao bomb hot chocolate. For an extra treat, enjoy them chilled or warmed, and store them in the fridge for up to a week.
Whether you’re enjoying them as a mid-afternoon snack or serving them alongside a cozy beverage, these Turmeric Biscuits are sure to brighten your day. With their sunny hue and delicious spices, they’re more than just a treat—they’re a little bit of happiness in every bite!
So go ahead, embrace the golden glow and treat yourself to these delightful biscuits. Happy baking!
