Flakemeal biscuits from The British Baking Book: The History of British Baking, Savory and Sweet (page 87) by Regula Ysewijn

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I really love these. I baked them until the edges just crisp up to light brown, rested them on the pan for a little bit, then on the cooling rack. They are light on sweetness, buttery, and chewy from the oats and coconut. They are a great snack with coffee or tea.
