I’m going through a serious biscuit obsession at the moment. I used to be all about chocolate but since switching to a more plant-based diet, biscuits are my new go-to for a sugar hit. And Gingernuts are up there as one of my most favourites.

Flapjack Recipe - Baking with Granny. The perfect chewy flapjack, made with Scottish oats and golden syrup.

Scottish Tablet recipe from Baking with Granny. Real old fashioned tablet from Scotland.
