Toffee Apple and Oat Crunchies

Toffle Apple And Oat Crunchies


Ingredients for 16 servings

1 large (US extra large) egg, beaten 
2.5ml/ ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) 
50/ 2oz chewy toffees, coarsely chopped 
50g/ 2oz dried apple rings, coarsely chopped
75g/ 3oz/ ⅔ cup plain (all-purpose) flour 
90g/ 3 ½ oz/ ½ cup sugar 
150g/ 5oz/ 10 tablespoons of unsalted (sweet) butter 
175g/ 6oz/ scant 1 cup light muscovado (brown) sugar 
250g/ 9oz/ 2 ½ cups rolled oats 
Pinch of salt 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 350°F/ Gas 4. Line two or three baking sheets with baking parchment. 

In a large bowl, beat together the butter and both sugars until light and creamy. Add the beaten egg and beat well until thoroughly combined. 

Sift together the flour; bicarbonate of soda and salt. Add to the butter; sugar and egg mixture and mix in well. Finally add the oats, sultanas, chopped rings and toffee pieces and stir gently until just combined.

Using a large tablespoon, place heaps of the mixture well apart on the prepared baking sheets to allow room for spreading during baking. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until lightly set in the centre and just beginning to brown at the edges. 

Remove the cookies from the oven and leave to firm up on the baking sheets for a few minutes. 

Using a metal spatula, transfer the cookies to a wire rack and leave to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
