Honey oat biscuits



I made these the other day and they turned out quite nicely. I got the recipe off the internet, but modified it a bit, because it didn't have nearly enough honey. One of the drawbacks of internet recipes is that they are sometimes written by people who still measure in cups (and presumably live in caves or something), but I've done my best with it. It makes about 30 biscuits.

Ingredients:
  • 125g butter or margerine
  • 125g sugar
  • 4 Tbsp honey (or more)
  • 125g flour (I used plain flour)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 135g oats
Method:
  •  Preheat the oven to 180 C and line baking trays.
  • Cream butter, sugar and honey.
  • Mix in flour, baking powder and spices.
  • Mix in oats. You'll probably want to add a bit more honey at this point. 
  • Roll mixture into balls and place on trays. Flatten with a fork.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
They don't spread out too much while baking, so you can fit quite a few on each tray.
