I was intending on making flapjacks but I decided on doing some cookies instead. I think the recipe works well as a cookie but would also be brilliant in put into a flapjack tin.
Ingredients
- 155g margarine
- 220g dark brown sugar
- 100g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons apple sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 125g plain flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 245g porridge oats
Method
Grease a baking tray & preheat oven to 180 C / Gas 4
Cream together the margarine, dark brown sugar & caster sugar. Next stir in the egg, water, apple sauce & vanilla. Combine the flour, salt, bicarb & cinnamon in a separate bowl and stir into the creamed mixture. Finally, stir in the oats. Place rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared baking tray, I made them around golf ball size.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool on baking trays for a couple of minutes then place on wire racks to finish cooling, these were so moreish when still warm.
Never made these before
