Ingredients

  • 225g chestnut flour (or ground almonds)
  • 110g butter softened
  • 1 egg to bind
  • 2 tsp mixed spice
  • 4 tbsp sultanas
  • 2 tbsp raw honey or maple syrup (Optional: chestnut flour is already sweet so add these to your taste)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C/350 ° F/gas mark 4.
  2. Rub the butter and chestnut flour (or almonds) together either by hand or using a food processor.
  3. Add the spices, honey and sultanas.
  4. Add an egg to bind the biscuit mixture and mix again. If the mixture isn’t sticking add a small amount of water or almond milk (1 tablespoon at a time) until it binds into a dough.
  5. Place the dough between 2 pieces of greaseproof paper dusted with a little flour on a flat surface. Roll out the dough using a rolling pin or glass bottle to a 1⁄2 cm thickness.
  6. Cut out biscuit shapes using a cookie cutter or the rim of a drinking glass. Place biscuits onto a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper or a little oil to prevent them from sticking.
  7. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crunchy. Sometimes we turn off the oven and leave for a little longer to get them nice and crunchy 🙂
  8. Leave to cool and serve. Keep in an air tight tin for up to one week.
