Delicious Lemon And Date Oat Biscuits

Pregnancy is sometimes filled with cravings for all types of food. When you’re craving something sweet it’s a good idea to choose a healthier option than a packet of lollies.

These lemon and date oat biscuits are a great option when following a healthy pregnancy eating plan as they don’t contain any refined sugar.

Make a batch and store in an air tight container in the pantry so you can grab one with a cup of herbal tea for a healthy, filling snack.
