Abernethy biscuits. Here how you make them Ingredients: One standard egg 8 oz plain flour One tablespoon milk 3 oz caster sugar 3 oz butter Half a level teaspoon baking powder Half a level teaspoon of carraway seeds Method: Sift the flour and baking powder and rub in the butter until it is thoroughly mixed. Mix in the sugar and carraway seeds and then add the egg and milk to make a stiff dough. Roll the mixture on a floured surface until it is the thickness required for a biscuit/cookie. Cut out with a three-inch plain cutter, rolling the trimmings to make more, as required. Prick the top of the biscuits with a fork and place on greased baking trays and bake in a pre-heated oven at 375F/190C/Gas Mark 5 for ten minutes until a light golden brown.
You've ponced another one of my threads!!! Next you will be asking what everyone has in their fry-ups. By the way, the chocolate hobnob won the last vote hands down. Maybe.
What about about Gingerbread?? I fail to recognise anything in the remotest bit "bready" about this particular and peculiar foodstuff. Used to love it as a kid though with butter on.
