Hello,
We do not have a tested egg free version of this recipe.
However, I did test another biscuit recipe today which doesn’t have egg, and I used a plant butter, and the results were excellent. And if you want a peanut biscuit without egg I’m confident that you could do a version of the Chocolate Orange Biscuits with peanuts.
I made dairy free Chocolate Orange Biscuits substituting the butter with Flora Plant Butter and I used chopped Nomo chocolate. They baked in slightly less time – 18 minutes.
I think tor a peanut cookie, this recipe would work well omitting the orange zest and juice, replacing it with 40g of chunky peanut butter and replacing the chocolate with roughly chopped peanuts. Possibly a spot of milk / almond milk if needed.

That is brilliant advice - thank you SO much! I will definitely be trying both recipes - very grateful.
