Digestive Biscuits
- 11 ounces plain whole wheat flour
- 4 tablespoons wheat germ
- 14 teaspoon baking soda
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons powdered milk (I used full-fat organic goat milk powder)
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 4 12 ounces butter
- 5 tablespoons cold water
- 12 teaspoon malt syrup
- 12 teaspoon vanilla
- Combine the dry ingredients, then cut in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Combine the water, malt syrup and vanilla and drizzle over the dry mix.
- Mix until the dough can be squeezed and it holds together.
- If necessary, add more water in small amounts.
- Roll out either between two sheets of waxed paper, or better place the dough on a Silpat and then top it with a sheet of wax paper.
- Roll out to a thickness of 1/8 and then stamp out shapes.
- Peel away trimmings, then prick with fork.
- Bake at 325F for 20-25 minutes, taking care that they dont over-brown.
- When cool, store in air-tight container.
