Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 tablespoon butter unsalted
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour plain flour
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut
  • ½ cup oats (old fashioned/rolled oats)
  • cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoon water boiling
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda bicarbonate of soda
  • 2 teaspoon golden syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 355F/180C and prepare a large baking sheet/tray with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Melt the butter either in a small pan or in a microwavable dish (eg pyrex) for 20 seconds at a time, stir then repeat until just melted.
  2. Place the flour, coconut, oats and sugar in a medium-sized bowl and mix together.
  3. Measure the boiling water into a separate small bowl and add the baking soda. Stir to dissolve (it may not completely, and may fizz up but both fine). Add the golden syrup and stir to dissolve/mix (again may not completely). Add the melted butter and mix.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix everything so evenly distributed.
  5. Take roughly tablespoonfuls of the mixture and roll each spoonful in your hands into a ball. Place on the lined baking sheet with a good amount of space (around 3in/7.5cm) between each biscuit and flatten the ball slightly. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
  6. Bake the biscuits for approximately 10 - 15 minutes until evenly golden. I found 12 minutes gave a nice balance of crisp edges and still slightly soft which became chewy in the middle. Nearer 15 minutes will make them more evenly crisp.

Notes

  • When I say "tablespoonfuls" of the mixture, I am meaning US-sized, 15ml spoons, rather than Australian 20ml spoons - if using Australian measure, I'd suggest you have a slightly under-filled spoon or alternatively make slightly less but larger.
  • As you can see, this makes a relatively small batch but you can easily multiply up the quantities of everything equally to make more, as needed. Bake time will be the same. 
  • Video shows making a half batch of 6, but method etc is exactly the same.
