8oz Sr flour.
1-2 oz marg.
pinch salt.

Make as breadcrumbs then add in about 2 oz sugar. maybe some chopped cherries and an ounce or 2 of coconut? That's the fave in our house.
Use milk to mix to a slightly sticky dough. Just bring it together, don't knead it!
Turn out onto floured surface and cut out rounds. Brush with beaten egg/ milk if you can be bothered. Onto floured tray.
Bake at gas 7-8 for about 10 mins.

Don't cut in half when warm, should be able to pull in half easily. If you cut them, they tend to seem doughy in the middle.
