Ingredients

  • 115g/1/2 cup butter or margarine, at room temperature

  • 90g/7 tbsp light brown sugar

  • 65g/5 tbsp crunchy peanut butter

  • 1 egg

  • 50g/1/2 cup plain flour

  • 2.5ml/1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 2.5ml/1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1.5ml/1/4 tsp salt

  • 175g/1 1/2 cups muesli

  • 50g/1/2 cup raisins

  • 50g/1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350G. Grease a baking sheet.

  2. Cream the butter or margarine and sugar until light and flurry. Beat in the peanut butter and then beat in the egg.

  3. Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt over the peanut butter mixture and stir to blend. Stir in the muesli, raisins and walnuts. Taste the mixture to see if it needs more sugar, as the sugar content of muesli varies.

  4. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of the mixture on to the prepared baking sheet about 2.5cm/1 in apart. Press gently with the back of a spoon to spread each mound into a circle.

  5. Bake until lightly colored, about 15 minutes. With a palette knife, transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container.
