At last! A sugar-free cookie! Tender, oaty and gently spiced, you'll never miss the sugar.
Each cookie provides 82 kcal, 1g protein, 7g carbohydrate (of which 0.5g sugars), 5.5g fat (of which 1g saturates), 1g fibre and 0.4g salt.
Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5 and grease and flour two baking sheets.
Mix together the oats, flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda and mixed spice.
Cream the margarine in a bowl and beat in the pear and apple spread/purée, a little at a time. Beat in the oat mixture.
Place walnut sized portions of the mixture on a baking sheet, leaving a space of about 5cm/2in round each one. Flatten them slightly, with a fork.
Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes or until they are beginning to turn golden. Leave the biscuits on the baking trays until they are cool and firm.
