Ingredients

1.5 cups self-raising flour
1 cup wholemeal self raising flour
0.75 cups caster sugar
3 eggs
2 limes
1 cup raw macadamias

Method

Sift flours and sugar in a bowl and mix well.
In a separate bowl, combine lightly beaten eggs, lime juice, lime rind and whole, roasted macadamia nuts.
Add egg mixture to dry ingredients and stir to form a dough.
Turn dough onto floured surface, divide in 2 and shape into 2 logs.
Place logs on a greased and floured tray and bake in a hot oven, 200°C, for 15 minutes.
Allow logs to cool completely. Cut into thin slices. Spread in a single layer on a baking tray and return to a slow oven, 150°C, for 10 minutes or until firm and golden.
Makes 30 biscuits.

Dietitian’s note: Although these are a healthier option than many commercially available biscuits, these should still be considered an occasional treat and not an everyday food.
