Oatmeal Crispies Recipe

Ingredients:

4 oz. butter

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 large egg

1 1/2 cup quick cooking oat

3/4 cup plain flour (sifted)

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

1/2 tsp. salt

Dash ground cinnamon

Methods:

1. In a mixer bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.  Add egg and beat well after addition.
2. In a bowl, combine oats, flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.  Gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix to combine using a spatula.
3. Scoop using an ice cream scoop of medium size, I use a butter knife to even the batter, then drop onto an ungreased baking sheet and flatten the top lightly with a fork.
4. Bake in a preheated oven of 170 degree Celsius for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
5. Remove to wire rack to cool.
