How to prepare the recipe for wholemeal biscuits without butter

1

Combine the wholemeal flour , brown sugar and yeast in a bowl and give a quick mix. Flavor with grated orange zest.

Then roll it out between two sheets of baking paper until it reaches a thickness of 4 mm and use the pastry cutter of your choice to cut out as many biscuits as possible, also mixing up the leftovers. Prick the surface with a toothpick to aid cooking.

Cook them at 180°C for 17 minutes , leaving them to cool on the tray before moving them. This way you will avoid breaking them.
