Pecan & Raisin Oat Biscuits

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180°C/gas mark 4 and line your baking trays with baking paper.

Place the pecans on a baking tray and bake for five minutes. Once cool, chop your pecans (not too small).

Using an electric mixer or by hand, beat the butter, caster sugar and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.

While mixing, add each egg one at a time followed by the vanilla.

In to a mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture.

Add the oats, pecans and raisins and mix until combined.

Using a spoon, scoop 5cm heaps of dough on to the baking trays. Make sure you leave a good amount of space between each mound of biscuit dough.

Flatten each mound slightly with a damp hand.

Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes or until they are a light brown colour. Cool before consuming.
