These cookies are astonishing because they turn out – well nothing like you think they will. I love this recipe – it is quick easy and very impressive! Great big Giant Cookies!
It is especially great when you need to bake and you have nearly no flour in the house – I can’t help you if you don’t have castor sugar and butter either!
Meet the Players:
- 75 g butter
- 75 g oats
- 100 g castor sugar
- 1 egg beaten
- 2 teaspoons of flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
Let’s Play the Game:
Step 1:
Gently melt the butter in a pot.
Step 2:
Once it has melted put the oats into the pot and stir them through the butter.
Step 3:
Stir the sugar through the mixture and leave the mixture to stand for a minute or two, so that the oats can absorb the butter.
Step 4:
Now mix the beaten egg through the mixture and then add in your flour and baking powder.
Step 5:
This step is where you are required to follow the rules! Place six heaped teaspoons on a large baking tray and pop them in the oven until they are golden brown – about 8 minutes at 180 degree Celsius. (Don’t think you can fit more onto the tray!)
Step 6:
Don’t move them… they will conk and break up! Let them cool on the tray for about five minutes before you carefully place them on a cooling rack to finish cooling, and you can carry on baking the next batch.
Step 7:
Yum, yum you are done.
