Homemade Digestive Biscuits

Lovely recipe! Really close to the taste of a shop bought digestive, and all the better for being homemade. I bought medium oatmeal (not the usual flattened porridge oats) for this recipe, which I think was pretty important to the texture. I dipped half of them in white chocolate and half in dark chocolate. 15 minutes at 180c was perfect. Be sure to roll the out nice and thin as some of mine came out a bit chunky 😅

I used Wholemeal self-raising flour and left out the bic. Soda. I also didn’t add the salt. Reduced the sugar by just 10% to 45g. Wanted to reduce the butter but just went with 73g. I gather it will need the butter for crumbliness, crispness and flavour. May try 70g next time. I got 12 biscuits out of my dough. No issues with rolling. Next time I will roll a little more evenly as, because I was hurrying, I had some biscuits thinner than others. However, they both tasted delicious. Not something to make too often but I hadn’t eaten a biscuit in months and these were very moreish.
