Hi all you people looking for a wee crunchy biscuit, but with no sugar anywhere in sight.
I found this recipe in an old Scottish cook book, i just took the sugar out and replaced it with stevia.

So lets get these biscuits on the go.


You will need(not a lot actually)

100g of porridge oat
100g of butter plus 1tbls
50g self raising flour
3/4 tsp of stevia liquid or more depending on how sweet you like them.
I found the 3/4 tsp doesn't overly sweeten them.
I also added sultanas, but you can leave them plain if you want.

See that's not a lot of ingredients, is it!

                                                                           Directions

Set the oven at 170oC/325oF

1. Cream the butter with the stevia.

                   
                 It takes a bit more effort than it would be if using sugar, but it does cream nicely. 

                                               
                                   2. Then add the porridge oats, flour and sultanas, if using.

                                                   
                                                            3. mix everything together.

                 
                        4. Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls and flatten slightly.
           Place on a tray lined with grease proof paper in the center of the oven. Bake for 20 mins.
                I kept them in till the bottom of the biscuits were slightly golden, i like a crunch.

                                   
                                      And check these wee crackers out, they didn't last long.

               So that's them, a crunchy biscuit without all the added sugar, but also a bit of a crunch.

                                                                  GREAT FOR KIDS!
