Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6 and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.

2. Tip the oats and baking powder into a food processor and crumble in the dulse. Blitz to a sandy rubble.

3. Dice the butter into small cubes, add and blitz briefly. With the motor running, pour in enough boiling water to form a soft but not sticky dough.

4. Roll out to about 3mm thick on a well-floured surface. Stamp out rounds with a 5cm cutter and put on the baking sheet.

5. Bake for 20-30 minutes until just golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
