INGREDIENTS
125g good quality butter, melted125ml oil1 and ¼ cups brown sugar
3 cups cake flour1 cup brown flour4 Weetbix, crushed (may use about a cup of bran flakes instead) 1 and ½ cups chopped pecans/muesli/almonds/raisins/anything you like, cranberries are good too! 3 heaped teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon Bicarbonate of soda ½ teaspoon salt1 heaped teaspoon cinnamon powder 2 teaspoons saunmf (fennel seeds), dry toasted lightly
2 eggs1 cup sour milk/yoghurt/old fresh cream1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Honey, to glaze
METHOD
Mix butter, oil and sugar in a large bowl.Add in all dry ingredients.Whisk together eggs and sour milk/vinegar and use it to bind the dough. Do not over work, just mix lightly with wooden spoon. Batter will be sticky.Press into large, greased oven tray or 2 smaller swissroll pans. Smooth the top with a butter knife. You can sprinkle poppy seeds if desired. Press down lightly so that it adheres to dough.
Bake on 180°c till golden brown, about 30 minutes. Slice neatly.Use a silicone/pastry brush to glaze the tops with honey. Then place back into oven on 140°c for 15 minutes.
Remove and cool slightly. Use a small offset spatula to lift rusks out onto trays to crisp. They shouldn't be touching.Crisp on 110°c for 3 hours, flipping the rusks after every hour.Leave to cool completely before packing.
INFO & TIPS
Do not crisp the rusks using the thermofan. Bake and crisp on static oven if possible. The fan makes the rusks go soft very quickly.
