Bring the scraps together and roll out to make more discs, and cut holes in the centre of these. Repeat until u finish all the dough.

6. Place the discs on baking trays (you will need a few baking trays) and bake for 8-10 minutes until pale golden.

Allow to stand for a few minutes, then remove from the trays and transfer to wire racks to cool.
