I am starting to run out of room in my kitchen, there are biscuits everywhere! Just one more batch to go & I'll be finished baking and can start on dividing up & packaging. I did end up doing an extra batch too, as I realised there is nothing vegan friendly, so I made some oat & date biscuits that are vegan and wheat free. I also learned that in Australia you can't claim something is gluten free if it has oats because some people with Coeliacs Disease react to them, so wheat free is generally used instead.
Barley, rye, oats, wheat, and triticale all have gluten. I've never encountered triticale but I had to memorise that list for an exam decades ago and it seems to be permanently imprinted on my brain.
I'm so impressed with so much baking, especially in the heat!
triticale used to be a thing in the 80s, like chia is now
it's difficult to make bread with it as it has low gluten
