Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, rice flour, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir together until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, honey, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. The mixture should be thick yet slightly sticky. If adding nuts or cranberries, fold them in at this point.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches apart between each biscuit.
Flatten each biscuit slightly with the back of a spoon or your hands to shape them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the biscuits are set.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy as a breakfast treat or healthy snack!
