Wholemeal Nestum Biscuits





What I used:

A
100g butter
100 ml olive oil
130g caster sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla essence

B
200g plain flour
90g wholemeal flour
80g nestum
1 teaspoon baking powder


What I did:

1. Put all the dry ingredients B in a bowl and whisk for a few seconds to mix well.

2. Cream all the ingredients A for 2 to 3 minutes.

3. Add in the dry ingredients and mix into a dough.

4. Roll out into balls and place them onto baking tray and press lightly with a fork to flatten.

5. Bake in pre-heated oven at 140 degrees C for 30 to 40 minutes or till golden brown.

6. Cool and store in air-tight containers.

  2. Hi Wendy,
    There's no smell of olive oil. The nestum and the vanilla essence overcame it.
