FPIES-Friendly Breakfast Biscuits

Submitted by Lori S.

"Dairy-free, egg-free pancake-like biscuit cookie things, that I created especially for my 1-year-old son. He has FPIES (food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome), which is a wacky and fairly challenging food allergy that varies from person to person. We happen to be pretty fortunate, in that his FPIES isn't as severe as some experience, and he can have many plant-based proteins. I'm sure that some ingredients can be swapped out for others (coconut milk instead of soy milk, applesauce for coconut oil, etc.) -- please keep in mind that I make these for my toddler, and he happens to lack fats in his diet. That's what the coconut oil is for, so they're actually more oily/greasy than I would prefer to eat, if I were making them for myself. These are fine to refrigerate or freeze, then re-heat for later."
