- 1
Set the oven to 190°C (170°C fan). Rub the butter, sugar and flour together with your fingertips until it looks like breadcrumbs; a food processor will also do this. Mix in just enough egg to bring it together into a firm dough.

With floured hands, roll the dough into a log about 5 cm across and cut it into 2 cm slices. Lay them on a large baking sheet with space between, as they spread while baking.

Press a small dip into the centre of each slice with the handle of a wooden spoon and spoon in a teaspoon of jam. Bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly risen and just golden, then cool on a wire rack.
