Orange and Peanut Butter Biscuits
Serves: 12 Cooking time: 10 minutes
Chewy, nutty little mouthfuls, rich enough that one is enough when you're craving something sweet. The wholemeal flour and Total Sweet Xylitol make these a much healthier option than standard sweet biscuits.
Ingredients:
-
3 tbsp Total Sweet Xylitol
-
75g plain wholemeal flour
-
50g butter softened
-
2 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
-
1 medium egg yolk
-
Finely chopped zest of an orange and juice of a quarter of an orange
Method:
- Preheat a fan-based oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4.
- Line a baking tray with baking powder.
- Place all ingredients into a mixing bowl and combine into a smooth dough.
- Break the dough into pieces and roll it into balls, each slightly smaller than a walnut. Place the balls onto the baking sheet and flatten them slightly with a fork.
- Bake for around 10 minutes until just turning golden then remove from the oven, place on a wire rack and allow them to cool and harden. Store in an airtight container.
