Preheat oven to 180C.

Beat butter and peanut butter together in a stand mixer. Then add the chia egg and coconut sugar.

Sift in flour and baking powder. Add rolled oats, pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds and mix to combine.

Shape the dough into even sized rounds of about 2 tablespoons and place on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Press tops of biscuits with a fork.
