Beskuit-rusks are a South African breakfast staple, often enjoyed with coffee or tea. These gluten-free rusks are a twist on the classic recipe, using brown rice flour and gluten-free flour instead of wheat flour. They are perfect for those with gluten and dairy intolerances, but still want to enjoy a crunchy, dunkable biscuit in the morning. The addition of coconut, almonds, and sesame seeds provide additional texture and flavor, making these a great option for both breakfast and snacking throughout the day.

4.Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined.
5.Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth it out evenly.
6.Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
7.Allow it to cool, then cut into rusks and place them on a baking sheet.
8.Bake at 100°C for 2-3 hours, or until crisp and dry.
