Has anyone made their own Ryvita type biscuits?

Feel free to move this, but I couldn't find it anywhere. My dh has stopped eating bread and is looking so much slimmer for it. We all are actually as we now buy hardly any bread. Instead of sandwiches at work, he now takes Ryvita and maybe tuna/ mayo/ sweetcorn etc.
I would love to make something similar. I did get 3 boxes of oat cakes with thyme (rick stein ones) in my order from swinco. They are horrible! I will eat them as I don't want them to go to waste, but dh had them in lunch one day and won't be wanting them again.
Poundland had 2 packs for £1 last time I was in. I went to town today to get more, and they don't have them now. I ended up paying £1.76 in Tesco for 2 packs.
If anyone has a tried and tested, and tasty recipe for anything similar, I would really appreciate it.

    Interesting, that one is made with b powder, and the other with yeast. I just need to find some rye flour now that doesn't cost the earth!

    Will be giving the yeast-based ones a go, I think. They look lovely. :) Thanks OP for posting something I had never even thought of trying to make myself. :)

    If I could still get 2 for a pound I wouldn't have thought of it either TBH. I just hated paying 88p each. And we go through maybe 2 -3 packs a week at least!
    I think I will try both when I get some rye flour. Maybe the Nigel ones first, as I know Lidl have bags of rye flour mix for 69p. It has the yeast in already, so would be no good for the other ones which I think would work out cheaper as they use plain flour too.
    If anyone else tries to make them first, let me know. I don't think I will get rye flour this week.
