Super easy, and healthy berry biscuits. If you make double the quantity you can freeze the dough and make them whenever you like.
175g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
½ tsp baking powder
85g porridge oats
175g golden caster sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
140g butter, chopped
70g pack dried blueberries (or use raisins or dried cranberries)
1 egg, beaten
Tip the flour, baking powder, oats, sugar and cinnamon into a bowl, then mix well with your hands.
Add the butter, then rub it into the mixture until it has disappeared.
Stir in the blueberries and add the egg.
Mix well with a cutlery knife or wooden spoon until it all comes together in a big ball.
Lightly flour a work surface, then roll the dough into a fat sausage about 6cm across.
Wrap in cling film, then chill in the fridge or freezer until solid.
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F / Gas mark 4.
Prepare 2 baking trays with greaseproof paper and set aside.
Unwrap the cookie log, thickly slice into discs and arrange on the baking trays.
Bake for 15 minutes (or a few minutes more if from frozen) until golden, leave on the trays to harden, then cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
