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:

  • 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:

  1. Preheat a fan-based oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4.
  2. Line a baking tray with baking powder.
  3. Place all ingredients into a mixing bowl and combine into a smooth dough.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
