Biscuit Recipe

Namaste
This biscuit recipe is the one I use week after week at the Sunday Free Yoga Session at Fradgley Hall Burleigh Heads. People are always asking me for the recipe so here it is:

160 g soft butter (1/3 of 500g)
1 cup rich brown sugar

4 Tbsp yoghurt or soured milk (milk mixed with cider vinegar)
1 cup sultanas

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup coconut (optional)
2 cups self raising flour

Yields about 32 small biscuits or 18 large

Beat the butter and sugar, mix in the yoghurt and sultanas and then stir in the dry ingredients. Roll into balls and squash down with a fork onto a greased tray. Bake for 20 - 30 mins at 280 degrees centigrade.

Cool on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container for lasting crispness.
These biscuits are super quick to make and are delicious. For variation I sometimes add carob chips, nuts, carob flour and at Christmas time mixed fruit with a cherry on top.

happy eating
