ORANGE, OAT & CHOCOLATE CHIP BISCUITS

Makes 20
125g butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar

1 egg

½ tsp vanilla

Zest of 1 orange

1 cup rolled oats

  1. Preheat the oven to 170C. Line two baking trays with paper.
  2. Beat the butter and brown sugar until light and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla beating well.
  3. Stir through the zest, oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and chocolate chunks. Place tablespoons of mixture on the baking trays. Top with a little extra chocolate if desired. Bake for 20 minutes, swapping them around in the oven halfway through for even cooking. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack.
