Ingredients

The following ingredients have 24 Servings
  • 60 gram butter
  • 1/4 cup (90g) honey
  • 1 cup (160g) wholemeal self-raising flour
  • 1/4 cup white plain (all-purpose) flour
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup (15g) unprocesse wheat bran
  • 1 teaspoon water, approximately
  • 2/3 cup (100g) icin (confectioners') sugar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice, approximately

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease oven trays.
  • Beat butter and honey in a small bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Stir in sifted dry ingredients, bran and enough water to mix to a soft dough.
  • Knead dough on a floured surface until smooth. Roll dough between sheets of baking paper until 3mm thick. Using a 5cm round fluted cutter, cut rounds from dough; place on trays about 3cm apart.
  • Bake biscuits for 10 minutes or until browned lightly. Leave biscuits on trays for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool.
  • Meanwhile, make icing: sift icing sugar into a small heatproof bowl; stir in honey and enough juice to make a stiff paste. Place bowl over a small saucepan of simmering water; stir until icing is spreadable.
  • Spread biscuits with icing; leave to set on wire racks.
