Mary Berry's oat biscuits

Did you get snow?
It passed us by in this corner of the Fens and I admit to being a little disappointed!
Though, we have had some beautiful, sunny and frosty mornings; the sort of morning when even the most mundane of objects is transformed by a sparkly covering of white crystals.

The other day, Tiny Girlie and I spent a cosy morning in the kitchen.
We baked biscuits; sometimes it is difficult to find recipes easy enough for her to be fully involved, but which are also relatively healthy.
This recipe from  Mary Berry's Ultimate Cake Book seemed to fit the bill.

With just 4 ingredients the recipe was straightforward and easy and most importantly the biscuits were delicious.

50g caster sugar

100g soft butter

100g rolled oats

50g plain flour

Preheat the oven to 160c.

Cream together the butter and sugar, then stir in the flour and oats and knead lightly until smooth.

Roll out to a thickness of 5mm and cut into rounds with a 6cm cutter.

Place on a greased baking tray and bake for about 20 minutes until starting to brown.

Cool on a wire rack.

We enjoyed the biscuits - me with a mug of tea and little F with her cup of milk.

Hoping you have a good week.

Speak soon.
