INGREDIENTS

  • 250g/9oz Wholewheat pastry flour
  • 75g/3oz Soft Light Brown Sugar
  • 175g/6oz Butter or Vegan Marg
  • A Large Handful of Hazelnuts

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 300F or 150C.


Beat the butter or margarine with the sugar until blended.


Add the flour, and mix together to form a dough.


Knead on a floured surface.


Gently work the whole hazelnuts through it, flatten out to a depth of about half an inch.


If you have a moon-shaped pastry cutter, use this to form the biscuits.


However, you may want to cut the moon shapes yourself with a small sharp knife.


You can even add a few features, or Moon symbols, to the surface.


Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, and put in the oven until light golden brown.
