Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Desiccated coconut
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 100 grams Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, desiccated coconut, and brown sugar.

Step 3

Melt the unsalted butter and golden syrup together in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring gently until well combined.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the baking soda with the water, then add this mixture to the melted butter and syrup. The mixture will foam up slightly.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix well until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Take tablespoons of the mixture and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking trays, leaving space between each to allow for spreading.

Step 7

Gently press each ball down with a fork to flatten slightly.

Step 8

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 9

Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
