Oat & Coconut Biscuits

After a couple of weeks practising knife skills, this week we focused on using a cooker safely. This week's recipe was oat and coconut biscuits, a simple and tasty recipe that needs both the hob and the oven to make. Our celebrity chef this week was Sarah and here she shows us how to make these yummy biscuits.

Oat and Coconut Biscuits (Makes 12)

100g oats

100g plain flour

75g dessicated coconut

75g light muscovado sugar

25g oat bran

125g margarine

1 tablespoon black treacle

1. Preheat the oven to 190 °C, gas mark 5 and grease a large baking tray.

2. Put all the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir.

3. Put the margarine and treacle into a small pan.

4. Gently heat the pan and stir to melt the margarine and treacle together.

5. Pour the treacle mixture into the dry mix and stir well.

6. Use your hands to mould lumps of the mixture into biscuits and continue until all the mixture is used up. It should make 12 biscuits.

7. Bake the biscuits for 15 to 20 minutes then cool on a wire rack.

With a delicious smell wafting around the kitchen and whilst we waited for the biscuits to cook and cool it was time to wash up and tidy away. Good job everyone!
