Make a treat that the whole family will enjoy with these jammy biscuits.
Ingredients
- 71⁄2oz flour (self raising)
- 33⁄4oz caster sugar
- 33⁄4oz butter
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 4 tbsp strawberry jam
Directions
1
Heat oven to 190°C / 170°C (fan oven) / 375°F / Gas Mark 5. Rub the flour, sugar and butter together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Alternatively, you can do this in the food processor. Add enough egg to bring the mixture together to form a stiff dough.
2
Flour your hands and shape the dough into a tube, about 5cm in diameter. Cut into 2cm-thick slices and place on a large baking sheet. Space them out as the mixture will spread when baking.
3
Make a small indentation in the middle of each slice with the end of a wooden spoon, and drop a tsp of jam in the centre. Bake for 10-15 mins until slightly risen and just golden. Cool on a wire rack.
