Aunty Beryl is a respected Gamiloroi Elder and an educator, mentor, businesswoman and ‘dead-set legend’. She met with Johanna Griggs on the Better Homes and Gardens TV show to share her stories and new cookbook, Aunty Beryl’s Cookbook, and make her famous lemon myrtle biscuits.
These biscuits used to be sold by Aunty Beryl at Carriageworks, and with only 5 ingredients, they’re just as easy to make at home.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat oven to 190 degrees Celsius. Sift flour and dried lemon myrtle into a bowl, then rub in the butter until it resembles breadcrumbs.
Add sugar and beaten egg and mix into a stiff dough, turn out onto a floured surface and knead gently until smooth.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Roll out onto a floured surface about 5mm thick and cut into about 30 biscuits.
Place on a greased baking tray and place in oven at 180 degrees Celsius for about 12 to 15 minutes until golden.
