About Scotch biscuit

Scotch biscuits, often associated with Scottish cuisine, are crisp, buttery cookies traditionally made from simple ingredients like flour, butter, sugar, and occasionally a hint of vanilla or salt. These biscuits embody the rich heritage of Scotland's baking traditions, offering a delightful balance of sweetness and texture. While their simplicity and rich flavor make them a favorite treat, they are high in calories, saturated fats, and refined sugars due to their buttery, sugary composition. They offer limited nutritional benefits beyond the energy they provide, making portion control crucial for those mindful of dietary health. Nevertheless, their straightforward ingredient list makes them free from artificial additives, and some variations may include wholemeal flour to enhance fiber content. Scotch biscuits are best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence alongside tea or coffee, contributing a touch of indulgence to your day.
