- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
40 bikkies
ingredients
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 1⁄3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup desiccated coconut
- 1⁄2 cup caster sugar
- 1⁄4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 125 g butter, cubed
- 1⁄4 cup golden syrup
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
directions
- Preheat oven to 150°C Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
- Sift together the flour and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add the rolled oats, coconut, caster sugar and brown sugar, and mix well.
- Combine the butter, golden syrup and water in a small saucepan, and stir over medium heat until the butter melts and the mixture is well combined (or this step can be done in the microwave). Remove from heat and stir in the bicarbonate of soda. Add immediately to the dry ingredients and use a wooden spoon to stir until well combined.
- Roll walnut-sized portions of mixture into balls and place on the lined tray about 5cm apart. Use your fingers to flatten each slightly (until they are about 1cm thick) and bake in preheated oven for 18 minutes for crisp on the outside and chewy in the centre (see note).
- Remove from oven and set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- NB/#These biscuits will keep in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- You can cook the biscuits for 16 minutes for a chewy biscuit or 20 minutes for a crisp biscuit.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa.
Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks.
As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
