Traveller's Digestives


A handy portable food introduced from the Counterweight Continent*. The original version is really a human variety of dwarf bread, i.e., it keeps you alive but makes you wish you were dead and it keeps really well because no one really wants to eat it. I've prettied it up a bit to make it appealin' to people who aren't on a raft somewhere and haven't already eaten their clothes and the weakest person present.

100 g porridge oats
100 g ground almonds
1 heaped teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
50 g melted margarinelbutter

4-5 tablespoons water


Bereiding:

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly in a bowl. Add the margarine/butter and rub in until it is absorbed.
Add food colour if desired.
Add the water, a spoonful at a time, until you get a marzipan-like consistency.
Roll out on a floured surface until 0.5 cm thick and cut into 6 cm rounds.
Place on a greased tray and bake at the top of the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden green.
