Notes

I used almond meal instead of hazelnut meal.
I used margarine instead of butter.
I used 1/4 cup of oat flour as well as the meal as I found that there was no way I could roll these into a ball and even with the extra flour I had to use 2 teaspoons to make mounds.
Don't get me wrong these made a really nice biscuit and I'd make again but I'd use the extra flour. A very small egg may make a difference as no egg size was specified,  I generally use extra large eggs.
