What's needed:
Here's how ...
Preheat oven to 180 ° C. Add all the ingredients together in a food processor and let everything mix well to form a dough. For portioning, take small pieces of dough and roll them into balls with your hands. Then draw and sculpt them into long biscuits, about 1 cm thick strips are ideal. If you find the mixture is too sticky, you can sprinkle your hands with dry flour.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and let them bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they start to turn golden to light brown.Then remove the tray from the oven and let it cool. Arrange the biscuits into desired shape and sprinkle the remaining lemon zest over it. This gives the shortbreads that extra acidic kick!
Place in the fridge for 2 hours to set, then enjoy!

What to do:
Put all the ingredients into a food processor and blend until it forms a smooth paste.
White sugar is made up of sucrose, which is a combination of fructose and glucose. It comes from sugar cane, which is a natural plant – so why is white sugar so bad for us? In the refining process it goes through all vitamins, minerals enzymes, fibers and phytonutrients are removed and these are all essential for our body to be able to process it and slowly release the fuel it offers, thus keeping our system in balance. Instead, processed sugar goes straight into the blood stream in one dose, provides a huge high of energy and then it just stops. It's like a plane using all of it's fuel in the first 30mins of flight, and not having enough to continue the further 4 hours it has to fly, what happens? It crashes, and so do we. And then we eat more sugar to feel the energy high again… and round and round it goes. But nowhere in that does anything of nutritional value enter our system, leaving our amazing body to try to process it by bringing in nutrients from other sources, sadly having to take them away from other important functions they had been planned for.
What to do …
Mash the bananas in a bowl with a fork until they become soft and liquid like. Blitz the oats in a food processor until they become finer textured, we want to keep some texture so not too fine like flour. Mix the oats with the mashed banana. Melt the coconut oil and add to the mixture. Add the cocoa and chia seeds and work it all together using the back of a spoon. Once it forms a sticky thick dough then you can take small amounts in your hands and work it into a ball shape.
Place in the fridge for 2 hours to set, then enjoy!
