Oatmeal Biscuits. Time—¾ hour.

5 oz. flour, 7 oz. oatmeal, 1 oz. castor sugar, 3 oz. butter, ¼ teaspoonful baking-powder, 1 egg.

Melt the butter, mix the flour, sugar, oatmeal, and baking-powder, together; stir in the melted butter. Break the egg into a teacup, beat it up with a little water, and stir it into the other ingredients to form a paste. Turn the paste on to a board, and roll it out very thin, cut it into rounds with a cutter or tumbler, place the biscuits on a greased tin and bake 20 minutes.
