Method:
Grease a baking sheet. Place all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix with a wooden spoon to form a soft dough.
Turn out onto a lightly floured board and roll out to approx. half-inch thick.
Cut into rounds. Re-knead pieces and cut again.
Brush top with beaten egg and bake in pre-heated oven 200 degrees for about 15-20 mins. depending on your oven. Mine is fan assisted.

You can ring the changes to this mixture by using raisins,
also using dates and walnuts, or topping with cheese.
