| 3 | THE BISCUIT | |

| "Ingredients 1 cup rolled oats 1 cup plain flour 1/2 cup sugar (can use brown sugar) 3/4 cup desiccated coconut 2 tablespoons golden syrup 125g butter or margarine 1/2 tsp bicarb soda 1.5 tablespoon boiling water pinch of salt Instructions 1) Preheat oven to 180C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. 2) Place the flour, coconut, rolled oats, sugar and a pinch of salt in a large bowl and stir with a wooden spoon to combine. 3) Place the butter and golden syrup in a small saucepan over low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 mins or until butter is melted (or microwave). Set aside for 5 mins to cool slightly. 4) Combine 1 1/2 tbs boiling water and the bicarbonate of soda in a small bowl. Add to the oat mixture along with the butter mixture. Stir until well combined. 5) Roll tablespoonfuls of the mixture into balls and place on the lined trays, allowing space for spreading. Gently press each ball to flatten slightly. Bake for 15 mins for crisp biscuits. Set aside on the trays to cool completely. The biscuits will harden as they cool. (1937 edition of The Commonsense Cookery Book.) | ||
