Ginger Oat Cookies



If you want to make something yummy really quickly, oat cookies are a great idea - ten minutes to prepare, ten minutes to cook - and they are really tasty
.

Makes approx 25 cookies

Ingredients
150g wholemeal flour or plain white flour
150g caster sugar
150g porridge oats
1,5 tsp baking powder

100g butter
2 tbsp golden syrup
2 tbsp milk
1,5 tsp ground ginger
1,5 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
  • Heat a fan oven to 180 degrees (200 for non fan oven)
  • Sieve the flour into a bowl, add the sugar, oats and baking powder
  • Melt the butter in a sauce pan, when melted add the milk and syrup - make sure the mix blends together well, then add the ginger and cinnamon (blend the spices thoroughly)
  • Add the liquid mixture into the flour mix and work together to a quite firm dough (if it is too wet, add a bit more flour and/or oats)
  • Put a sheet of baking parchment in a baking tray (depending on how big trays you have got, you might need to use two)
  • Roll the dough into small balls (approx 1'' in diameter), place on the tray and press them down a little - make sure to have a bit of space between the cookies since they tend to melt a bit in the oven.
  • Bake in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes
