Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F, and line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
- Combine the flour, oat bran, sugar, salt and bicarbonate of soda in a large bowl, and use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Add the water and use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to mix the ingredients in the bowl until the mixture just comes together.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to rest.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal portions and use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out the dough until it is about 3mm thick. Use a 5cm/2"-diameter round pastry cutter to cut out the biscuits and place them on the prepared trays.
- Lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with egg and sprinkle with the extra oat bran.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven, swapping the position of the trays over halfway through the cooking, for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Set aside for 15 minutes to cool.
- Serve with the blue cheese, cheddar and brie and with Toffee Grapes Recipe #144733.

HEALTHY-ISH IRISH OATMEAL COOKIES
On the back of a McCann's® Quick Cooking Irish Oatmeal box I noticed a recipe for 'Irish Oatmeal Cookies.' I more or less followed the recipe substituting things here and there, and the results were über-delicious. Perfect for a coffee or tea break snack or breakfast. I would have added some cinnamon if my hubby didn't dislike that flavor so much. Please try it! Here's what I did.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together flour and oatmeal. Add butter and sugar; using your hands mix until it comes together and forms a dough. Form dough into a disk and cover with plastic wrap; transfer to refrigerator until chilled, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Line two baking sheets with nonstick baking mats or parchment paper. Roll out dough on a floured work surface to 1/8-inch thick. Using a 1 3/4-inch round cutter, cut out biscuits; transfer to prepared baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. Continue rerolling scraps and cutting out biscuits. Transfer baking sheets to refrigerator; let biscuits chill 20 to 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Transfer baking sheets to oven and bake until lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool slightly on baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Oats: Use good quality rolled oats or oatmeal for the best texture and flavor.
- Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing can make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps the biscuits keep their shape while baking.
- Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown on the edges and the tops are firm.
- Let the Biscuits Cool: Allow the biscuits to cool on a wire rack before serving.
