Method

Lay slices flat on the tray and bake for 40 minutes, turning halfway through, then cool completely.

Mix flours, sugar, cranberries, cashews, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, spices, and salt in a bowl.

Create a well in the center, add eggs and vanilla, and mix by hand to form a dough.

Roll dough on a floured surface into a 30cm long by 5cm wide log and transfer to the tray.

Press the log down gently until it is 1.5cm high.

Preheat the oven to 170°C and line a baking tray with parchment.

Bake for 30 minutes until firm, then remove and cool slightly.

Cut the log into thirty 1cm thick slanted slices using a serrated knife.
