Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup desiccated coconut
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- 1 tablespoon boiling water
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, coconut, and sugar.
- In a small saucepan, melt butter and golden syrup over low heat. In a separate small bowl, dissolve baking soda in boiling water, then stir into butter mixture (it will foam).
- Pour butter mixture into dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
- Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls and place on prepared trays, leaving space for spreading. Flatten slightly with a fork.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Cool on trays for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips
- Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
- For extra chewiness, underbake slightly and cool on the tray.
- Substitute golden syrup with honey or maple syrup if needed.
