Jammy Biscuits!!!

These are a classic Jammy filled biscuits; just like the one you made when you were little (yet they still taste as amazing). This is a great recipe to play about with as you can make so many different variations. I have gone for a mixture of chocolate and plain biscuits, but you could easily make them savoury adding cheese and using a chutney or chilli jam as the centre


Ingredients

300g Self Raising flour
150g Caster Sugar
150g Butter
2 Eggs (beaten)
Any jam (I've used a mixed fruit jam)



All the ingredient you will need

  1. Heat oven to 190'C 
  2. Rub the flour, sugar and butter together (it should look like breadcrumbs eventually). You could also add a tablespoon of Cocoa Powder at this stage if you want to make them chocolate biscuits and use Nutella instead of Jam
  3. Add the beaten eggs and mix into the crumbs until it is bound together in a dough.
  4. The next stage resembles childhood the most; rolling the mixture into a sausage. 
  5. Cut the sausage into roughly 2cm slices and round off into even size disks.
  6. Place on baking tray, making sure to space them out as the mixture will spread when baking.
  7. Using your thumb, make small wells in the middle of each biscuit and drop a dollop of jam in the middle.
  8. Bake for 10-15 mins until slightly risen and just golden, and cool on a wire rack (don't eat them straight away like I did as it will burn like hell!!!)


    No matter how much you space them out they will merge!

    Bon Appetite!
