Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup quick oats
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup melted unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup (or honey)
  • 1 tbsp hot water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional Garnish

  • Extra coconut flakes or crushed nuts for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the biscuits from sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, quick oats, desiccated coconut, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt, ensuring the dry ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Melt Butter Mixture: In a small pot, gently melt the unsalted butter with the golden syrup until fully combined, then remove from heat to prevent burning.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the hot water and vanilla extract into the butter and syrup mixture, mixing thoroughly to create a smooth wet mixture.
  5. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until a soft, crumbly dough forms, ensuring all dry ingredients are moistened.
  6. Shape Biscuits: Scoop tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten each ball to shape the biscuits.
  7. Add Garnish: Sprinkle extra coconut flakes or chopped nuts on top of each biscuit for added texture and visual appeal, if desired.
  8. Bake: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden color and become crisp around the edges.
  9. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack to achieve the perfect crunchy texture before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute golden syrup with honey for a slightly different but delicious flavor.
  • Use quick oats for a finer texture or rolled oats for a chewier biscuit.
  • Ensure the butter and syrup mixture is not too hot when combined with the dry ingredients to prevent premature cooking.
  • Store biscuits in an airtight container to maintain their crispness for up to one week.
  • For a nut-free version, omit the optional crushed nuts garnish.
