These are pretty tasty and because they don’t taste too rich and buttery it’s easy to just keep on eating them!

Ingredients:

• 5 oz/140 gm butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 dessertspoon golden syrup
• 1 beaten egg
• 2 cups bran
• 2 cups sifted flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• pinch salt

Method:

Cream the butter and sugar. Add the golden syrup and then the egg. Combine all the dry ingredients and add to the mixture. Mix well. Roll out on a floured board and then cut into squares. Place on an oven tray and bake at 180 C/350 F for 10 to 15 minutes (if you are using a fan-forced oven  then you will need to lower the temperature by up to 10 degrees centigrade and/or adjust the time).  When cooked place on a wire rack to cool and then store in an air-tight container.
