Golden syrup and baking soda give these old favourites flavour and crispness.
Ingredients:
125g butter
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup desiccated coconut
1 cup rolled oats
1 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp boiling water
Preheat oven to 180°C. Gently melt butter and golden syrup together. In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, coconut and rolled oats. Dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water and add to butter and golden syrup. Stir into the dry ingredients.
Place spoonfuls on a baking tray, allowing room for the biscuits to spread. Bake for 15–20 minutes.
