'Healthy' oat biscuits

This is a request by my friend Rhona, looking to satisfy a sugar addict in her life.

5oz/125g plain flour
5oz/125g porridge oats
4oz/100g desiccated coconut
4oz/100g soft brown sugar
5oz/125g butter
2tbsp golden syrup/light agave nectar
1tsp bicarbonate of soda

Preheat the oven to 160C/gas mark 3

1 Mix the flour, oats, coconut and sugar together in a large bowl.
2 In a small pan, melt the butter and golden syrup/agave with 2 tablespoons of water over a low heat.
3 Stir the bicarb into the melty mixture - it will froth a little.
4 Make a well in the dry goods and pour the liquid mixture into it. Stir until all incorporated.
5 Roll mixture into balls using the palms of your hands (about a tablespoon of mixture) and place on a lined baking tray, about 5cm apart. Flatten slightly using the back of a spoon.
6 Bake for 10 mins or until golden - they will still be soft but will harden up as they cool.

I'm tempted to add sunflower seeds and maybe some maca or mesquite to these to make them that little bit more special, but they are delicious and chewy as they are.
