Oaty Cookies

 

 

I was on the look out for a good oat cookie when I came across these, Mary Berry's oat cookies. I've tried a few of Mary Berry's recipes before and they always turn out great, so I knew I had to try them. I wasn't disapointed, they are so delicious! They remind me a bit of hobnobs, but a lot nicer as they are homemade. You can make them soft, chewy or crunchy depending on how long you cook them for. Perfect with a cup of tea!

 

 

 

Recipe

 

175 g self-raising flour

75 g porridgeoats

175 g granulated sugar (But I use caster sugar and they  still turn out great)

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1 tsp baking powder

175 g butter

2 tbsp golden syrup 

 

 

First, pre-heat the oven to 180°C. Mix together all of the dry ingredients.

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, in either a saucepan on a medium heat or in the microwave, heat together the golden syrup and butter until it is a caramel looking colour. If you've made flapjacks before, you'll notice the method is quite similar!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once you've melted the butter and golden syrup, mix this into the dry ingredients. Such a simple recipe!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Divide the mixture into about 28 balls. It's quite messy and you have to get your hands in there but its worth it! Press down slightly with a fork and cook for 12-15 mins depending on how chewy you want them. 12 mins it's more of a chewy cookie, wheras 15 makes a crunchy cookie. Both are amazing!

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And there you have it, oaty goodness straight from the oven! Enjoy!
