These are a pretty basic biscuit with a nice flavour, I just find that they are a little more filling with the bran and the teens are less likely to eat the whole batch between them in one sitting  :o :o :-)) :-))

ES - The verdict from the kids is that that these are yummy, which is good as they were quick to make. I only had shredded coconut, left out the brown sugar as they are sweet enough with the golden syrup, and topped them with a choc bit as my kids don't like glacé cherries. I made about 40 biscuits.

Yes  :D :D I have also decided today that this recipe would probably lend itself to about 1/3 cup of LSA in the dough as well. Well report back when I have tried that  ;) ;) maybe even chia seeds (probably white if you are trying to fool kidlets!!)

My daycare mum was giving the kids homemade biscuits the other day and suddenly realised she "accidentally" gave them the ones with LSA in them.  She didn't think they'd eat them, but they gobbled them down.  So it's worth a try.

Or you could mix up the flour a bit by replacing some with chickpea flour and maybe almond meal for some extra protein.   Might need some baking powder to make it "self raising".
