Homemade oat biscuits with warm orange flavour and addition of dark chocolate to compliment it more. Pecan nuts give a bit more crunch. Easy to make and even easier to eat, a perfect treat!
150 g self-raising flour
150 g porridge oats
100 g soft brown sugar
60 g pecan nuts, chopped
pinch of salt
1 tsp cinnamon
150 g unsalted butter
2 Tbsp golden syrup
1 Tbsp orange juice
1 orange, zest
1/2 tsp orange extract
75 g dark chocolate (about 65%-75%)
1. Preheat the oven to 175*C (350*F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Combine all the dry ingredients and orange zest in a bowl.
3. Melt the butter with the golden syrup.
4. Add the butter mixture to the dry ingredients along with orange juice and orange extract and mix well.
5. Shape the biscuits by picking about 1 Tbsp of dough and rolling it in your hands to shape a walnut-sized ball. Place on the prepared baking tray and flatten gently with the palm of your hand. Space the biscuits to allow to spread. Put in preheated oven and bake for about 12 mins (15 mins for more crunchy texture).
6. Leave to cool slightly on the baking tray and then transfer to a cooling rack.
7. When completely cold, melt the chocolate in bain-marie and drizzle over the biscuits. Allow to set.
