Ingredients
4.9 oz Walker’s Gluten Free Shortbread Rounds
3.5 oz of butter, melted
½ tsp of cinnamon
¼ tsp of nutmeg
14.1 oz of strawberries, halved
8.8 oz of jam sugar
Juice & zest, 1 lemon
1 tbsp of vanilla
Method
In a food processor, grind the shortbread rounds with melted butter, cinnamon & nutmeg.
Pour half the mixture into a lined 9x9” baking dish. Press down to compress.
To make the jam, add the strawberries, jam sugar, lemon zest & juice and vanilla to a large saucepan. Cook it down over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil and let it bubble and reduce for 20 minutes.
Take off the heat and leave to cool. When cool, pour the jam over your shortbread base.
Scatter the remainder of the crushed shortbread over the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Slice into 9 equal pieces and enjoy!
