Ingredients
- 180 grams rolled oats
- 140 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 130 grams unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon boiling water
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the golden syrup until fully combined and set aside.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water.
Step 5
Pour the melted butter mixture and the dissolved baking soda into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a sticky dough forms.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or your hands, scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls about the size of a walnut. Place them on the prepared baking trays, leaving enough space between each ball to allow for spreading.
Step 7
Gently press each ball down with the back of a spoon or your fingers to slightly flatten.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown around the edges.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the biscuits in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain crunchiness. Enjoy with a cup of tea!
