Ingredients
- 100g plain flour
- 50g caster sugar
- 100g Butter
- 50g Semolina
- 3 Preserved stem ginger, bulbs, finely chopped
- 5 large Dried apricots, chopped
- 1 tbsp demerara sugar, for sprinkling
Method
1. Set the oven to 160C/gas 2.2. Place the flour, sugar, butter and semolina into a food processor and whizz until the mixture forms a smooth dough. Remove the dough from the processor and knead in the ginger and apricots.
3. Shape into 16 small balls, each the size of a large walnut. Arrange on a baking sheet.
4. Using your fingers flatten the balls to make discs about one centimeter thick. Press the top of the biscuit with a fork. Sprinkle with little Demerara sugar.
5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until pale golden. Leave to cool and store in an airtight tin.
