Ingredients

  • 100 g self-raising flour
  • pinch salt
  • 25 g vegan butter chilled
  • 25 g caster sugar
  • 2 - 3 tablespoons soy milk
  • 75 g currants roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 180 C / 356 F / gas 4.
  • Line a baking tray with baking paper and place to one side.
  • Put the flour, salt and butter into a large bowl and, using your finger-tips, rub the flour and butter together until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Add the sugar followed by just enough milk to mix to a firm dough – it should not be sticky.
  • Wrap the dough in clingfilm and rest for 30 minutes in the fridge.
  • Tip the dough ball out on to a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a rectangle 5mm thick.
  • Sprinkle the chopped currants over half the surface and then fold the other half on top roll everything again so you end up with a rectangle roughly 18 by 28 cm trimming off any excess or uneven edges.
  • Cut this into fingers roughly 3cm by 7cm.
  • Place the biscuits on the baking sheet, prick with a fork in two rows, then brush with a little milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
  • Bake near the centre of the oven for 12–15 minutes, then place on a cooling rack to cool completely.
