Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
2.Melt the butter and sugar gently, then add the beaten egg, oats and almonds. Mix well.
3.Place teaspoon amounts onto a tray. It should take about 10-12 crisps, evenly spaced, as they do spread.
4.Bake for approximately 5-6 minutes, watching carefully as they can burn very quickly.
5.Remove from the oven and place the next tray in. As the first batch cools, slip them off on to a wire rack. Repeat with the last 12.
6.Keep in an airtight container. They will last for at least a week.
  • These make an ideal gift, stacked, wrapped in cellophane and tied with a ribbon. – The crisps are popular with coffee, and delicious crumbled over ice cream and fruit.
