Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F / 200 C / Gas 6. Lightly grease a baking tray or line with parchment paper.

Add the mixed spice to the pumpkin mixture, taste and adjust the spices to taste. Stir in flour and oatmeal until a dough forms, add nuts and chips, then knead a few times on a well floured surface until the dough holds together. Press the dough into a flat circle 1 to 1.5cm thick. Cut into 6 wedges, place onto greased baking tray, and brush the tops with 2 tablespoons of milk and sprinkle with spiced sugar (mixture of sugar and spice).
