This is a great recipe if you haven't got time to make Ginger Parkin as you really need to make it a week before you want to eat it. These biscuits are a nice quick bake but still taste amazing.
They are made with oatmeal as Parkin is and are a quick and easy bake in one bowl! They are crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.
They would be great for Bonfire night but also perfect any time of the year with a cuppa. They really are very tasty and so easy to make.
Start by lining two baking trays with parchment and preheat the oven to 170 degrees centigrade (150 fan).
In a large bowl place the flour, oatmeal, ginger, bicarbonate of soda and butter.
Rub the butter into the dry ingredients until they resemble fine breadcrumbs.
Then add the sugar, black treacle and golden syrup.
Mix until the dough comes together. I find a knife is good to bring it all together or you can use your hand.
Roll into 15 balls and place on the prepared baking trays.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Leave to cool and set then transfer to a wire baking rack to completely cool.
