- 100 g oats
- 100 g plain flour
- 75 g butter
- 75 g brown sugar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 50 g walnuts
- 1/3 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Place the butter, sugar and honey into a saucepan. Over a low heat, melt the butter and stir to dissolve the sugar.

Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the oats and chopped walnuts and combine.
Pour over the butter and sugar and stir with a wooden spoon. When mixed and cool, continue with you hands. Shape into patties and transfer onto a lined baking tray.
Bake at 170ºC for 15-20 minutes
Can substitute the honey for another inverted sugar such as Golden syrup.
I found the mixture cooled too quick and made it difficult to shape. I broke the lumps up and added a little water.
