Blue Peter - Make Tilly's gluten-free Red Nose Day biscuits

Tilly's recipe is for gluten-free biscuits, as she has Coeliac's disease, which means that she can't eat food containing gluten.

This gluten-free recipe is incredibly delicious, but if you can consume gluten, feel free to use regular flour.

Step 1

With the help of a grown-up, preheat your oven to 180 degrees. Then line a baking tray with parchment paper to use later.

Step 2

Start by mixing the butter and sugar together in a bowl. Once well combined, add the egg yolk and vanilla extract, continue mixing until smooth. 

Step 3

Next, sift the flour and cinnamon into the mixture and stir until it begins to form a dough - you might need to use your hands for this part. Then, chill your dough in the fridge for 20-30 minutes. 

Step 4

Once chilled, flour your surface and  roll out the dough so that it's 1 cm thick. Cut out your biscuits using a cutter and lay them on the baking tray. With the help of a grown-up, put the biscuits into the oven to bake for 10-12 minutes until pale golden.

Step 5

Now mix the raspberry jam with the icing sugar until combined. Once the biscuits have cooled, spoon the jam onto each whole biscuit, then carefully sandwich the other biscuit with a hole on top.

Step 6

Now for the fun part, use your icing to make funny faces or any decoration you like on your biscuits and enjoy!
