It wouldn't be Easter in our house without making these Easter Biscuits. They are easy to make and you'll no doubt make multiple batches! I find these are a nice treat if you fancy something that isn't chocolate. Yes, you can have too much chocolate sometimes! They are also fab to add to an Easter Hamper if you plan on making a gift for someone.
Find the recipe below!
Ingredients
- 4oz - Soft Butter
- 4oz - Caster Sugar
- 1 - Free Range Large Egg
- 8oz - Plain Flour
- ½ tsp - Cinnamon
- 2-3oz - Currants
- Pinch of Salt
- Milk to Glaze
Method
- Preheat the oven to gas mark 3 or Fan -325ºF. Line a baking tray at the same time with some baking paper.
- Either by hand or in a freestanding mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the flour, cinnamon, currants and salt.
- Now add the egg and bind together to make a stiff dough.
- Knead lightly until you have a nice ball of dough.
- Cover with cling film and chill for 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle a little flour on your surface to prevent the dough from sticking and roll-out the dough. Cut out your biscuits with a cookie cutter and place them on your baking tray.
- Glaze with some milk and bake until just golden brown.
Enjoy!
