Made these Christmas 2012 - Delicious and so easy and great with cheese and biscuits

Scottish oat biscuits with cheese

1 cup (90g) rolled oats
½ cup (80g) wholemeal flour
1/3 cup (50g) plain flour
1 teaspoon caster sugar
¼ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
90g butter, diced
2 egg whites
Cheese, to serve
Preparation method
1. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
2. In a food processor, process oats until fine. Add wholemeal and plain flours, sugar, bicarbonate of soda and ½ teaspoon salt. With motor running, add butter. Process until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. With motor still running, add egg whites. Process until mixture forms a ball.
3. Divide mixture in half. Roll out each half between floured baking paper into 23cm circles. Place on prepared trays. Chill for 30 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to 200°C or 180°C fan. Cut each circle into eight wedges. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool. Serve biscuits with cheese.(obviously ,but also work with savoury relish)
