These delicious and easy to make biscuits are great to bake with children as they can be on the table in less than 30mins. Experiment with all sorts of flavours by using different oils.

The recipe comes from award-winning Chiltern Cold Pressed Oil, known locally as “liquid gold” and loved by chefs, artisan producers and home cooks across the Chilterns. The rapeseed is grown, pressed and bottled as oil at the Meads Farm, Wilstone, nr. Tring – well worth a visit for their excellent farm shop and Farmhouse Kitchen.
