Crunchies

Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons syrup

Cooking instructions

Preheat the oven to 180° Celsius.

Combine the oats, coconut and sugar in a large bowl. Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder and stir into the oats mixture.

Melt the butter and syrup over a low heat and mix into the dry ingredients. Press down firmly into a prepared baking sheet and bake for eight to 12 minutes or until golden brown in colour. Cut the crunchies into squares while hot and leave to cool on a cooling rack.

For perfect roadtrip coffee:
Preheat your flask by rinsing it with boiling water – this will help it keep your coffee or tea warmer for longer. Make your tea or coffee as usual, but omit the sugar and milk and substitute it with a can of condensed milk for an extra-special cuppa.
