Ingredients

50g Demerara sugar
pinch of salt
3 tbsp boiling water
125g Doves Farm Organic Einkorn Flour
2 tsp baking powder
50g butter or lard
butter, for trays
flour, for dusting

Pre-heat the oven
Rub some butter around the inside of two baking trays or insert a baking liner.
Measure the sugar and salt into a jug, add the water and stir until dissolved.
Put the flour and baking powder into a bowl, stir to combine and sieve into a mixing bowl.
Add the butter or lard and use a fork or pastry blender to work it into fine breadcrumbs.
Pour in the prepared sugar liquid and mix to form a soft ball of dough.
Cover and rest the dough for 30 minutes.
Dust the work surface with flour, put the dough in the middle and sprinkle it with more flour.
Roll out the dough to a 3mm ⅛” thickness.
Press a 6cm/2¼" biscuit cutter or cup into the dough and gently lift the dough circles onto the prepared baking tray.
Gather together the off-cuts, press them together to make another ball of dough and roll it out for further biscuits.
Prick each biscuit a few times with a fork.
Bake for 6-7 minutes, until lightly golden.
When cold store biscuits in a tin.
