Method
Step 1: Cook the beef.
- Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat and let cool.
Step 2: Prepare the base.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cooked beef, cooked oatmeal, and egg. Mix until evenly incorporated.
- Step 3: Add oat flour.
- Gradually stir in oat flour until a firm, workable dough forms. Add water or broth a tablespoon at a time if the dough feels dry.
Step 4: Roll and cut.
- Roll dough to about ¼-inch thickness. Cut into biscuit shapes or small squares.
Step 5: Bake.
- Place on the lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 22–26 minutes, or until firm and lightly golden.
Step 6: Cool completely.
- Transfer to a cooling rack. Biscuits will become crunchier as they cool.
