About One jam biscuit
One Jam Biscuit is a small, sweet baked treat typically enjoyed as a snack or dessert. Originating from British cuisine, it consists of a buttery shortbread base formed into a round, often stamped or shaped design, with a dollop of fruit jam nestled in the center. The jam provides a burst of fruity flavor, commonly made from raspberry, strawberry, or apricot. While its primary ingredients include flour, sugar, butter, and fruit preserves, variations may incorporate vanilla or almond extract for added taste. Nutritionally, the biscuit is high in carbohydrates and sugars due to the jam and refined flours, making it an energy-dense choice. However, it offers small amounts of dietary fiber and vitamins from the fruit preserves. Moderation is key, as the high saturated fat content from the butter and added sugars categorize it as more of an indulgent treat than a health food.
