Ingredients
-
2 cups plain flour
-
2 cups rolled oats
-
2 cups desiccated coconut
-
1½ cups brown sugar
-
1 cup butter
-
4 Tbsp golden syrup
-
2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
-
2 Tbsp boiling water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 160°C (320℉)
- Lay baking paper over the biscuit/cookie trays.
- Sift the flour and then put the flour, oats, coconut and brown sugar into the mixing bowl and stir well with a wooden spoon.
- Smash out any lumps in the brown sugar.
- Put the butter and golden syrup in the saucepan over low heat, stir regularly with a wooden spoon until melted through.
- Remove from heat.
- Mix the baking soda and water together and add to the butter mixture in the saucepan. It will bubble and froth.
- Quickly add the frothy mixture to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl and mix everything together really well.
- Roll the mixture into balls about 2cm round.
- Place on the biscuit/cookie trays roughly 5cm apart.
- Wash and dry your hands and then flatten down the balls well.
- Bake for about 10 minutes. Remove and cool on wire racks.
Notes
- Make sure the biscuits are spaced well apart or they'll end up being one giant biscuit in the middle of the tray.
