Squirrels and Rabbits...

..make tasty biscuits!


One heart for Nan
One heart for Mam

Here's how I made the first batch:

1 1/2 cups rice flour
1 cup oatmeal
8tbsp soya marg
6 tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/3 tsp nutmeg
Handful of chopped hazelnuts

In a small pan melt the marg and sugar. In a bowl sift the rice flour, oatmeal, spices and nuts, then add the melted marg and sugar. Mix until a well combined dough has formed.
Take small balls of the dough and roll out onto a clean, floured surface, and make whatever shapes you like with them..I made squirrels and rabbits.
Transfer your doughy shapes onto a greased/foiled baking tray and pop in the oven for 15mins at 160/70oC
Then leave to cool on a cooling rack.

The second batch I made the same way but instead of brown sugar I used dark muscavado sugar, and instead of cinnamon and nutmeg I used ginger..to make ginger nuts!


I also made a jammy flower biscuit too!
