Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. In a bowl, mix wet ingredients. Add dry ingredients and nuts. Mix together with a rubber spatula until you form a stiff oily dough. With lightly oiled hands, fashion mixture into two logs and place on a non-stick baking tray. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove and cool. When cold, cut logs into diagonal slices, approx ½-1 inch thick. Place slices onto a baking tray and return to a low oven. Bake until crisp and brown - approximately 20 minutes, before switching off oven and then allow cooling and drying out in the oven overnight.
