DIGESTIVE BISCUITS RECIPE | MARTHA STEWART



Digestive Biscuits Recipe | Martha Stewart image

Our take on the British classic calls for a touch of brown sugar and a combination of whole-wheat and all-purpose flour, creating lightly sweet cookies with the perfect crunchy-tender texture. They make a wonderful addition to our Fruit Platter with Whipped Ricotta.

Total Time 1 hours 35 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Yield Makes about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 to 5 tablespoons whole milk
1 large egg white

Steps:

Using a 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter, stamp out rounds. With the back of a knife, score tops in a crosshatch pattern. Whisk egg white with 1/2 teaspoon water; brush top of each biscuit with egg wash. Place biscuits 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets; bake until firm and dry in centers and slightly darkened, 24 to 26 minutes. Let cool completely.

CRISPY DIGESTIVE BISCUITS RECIPE - FOOD.COM
These are one of the most popular biscuits sold commercially in Britain. They are very delicate and, therefore, extremely difficult to reproduce exactly but this recipe is fairly close. The ORIGINAL recipe is posted, verbatim, below. However, please note that I used Pillsbury plain whole wheat flour (which I sifted) and I used 4 ROUNDED, not level, tablespoons of wheat germ. These minor modifications were made as a result of the (always) invaluable advice and information I received from fellow chefs in a Recipezaar discussion forum. Biscuits will be 2 1/2 inch diameter x 1/8 inch thick.

DIGESTIVE COOKIES RECIPE | BON APPÉTIT
Wheat germ, the nutrient-rich heart of wheat kernels, gives these cookies their hearty, nutty crunch while also keeping them tender and crumbly. You can often find wheat germ in the bulk bin aisle of the grocery store, but toasted rolled oats or ground flax can be used in its place for a similar texture. These cookies are ideal for making in advance, as their flavor and texture improve after a few days. The butter and milk can be substituted with plant-based alternatives without sacrifice, so make them vegan if you want.
