Alterations

I am a huge fan of playing with ingredients to suit your fancy.  You could add cinnamon, ginger, sultanas, chocolate chip – give it a go – get creative! Just write it down somewhere so you remember what works and what doesn’t

You can also:

• Add more oats and less flour according to taste. Sometimes I pretty much only use oats, but just make sure what ever you take out in quantity of flour you add back in with oats.

• Leave out the syrup completely – it can make the biscuits slightly more crispy if you leave it in, but not much.

• Try coconut butter rather than goats butter
